A Kolkata native, Rinki was born in 1942. She was the eldest daughter of the renowned Indian filmmaker, Bimal Roy. Her childhood was spent around prominent writers, poets and artists, who frequented their household, which was also noted for its gourmet Bengali cuisine.

She began her career as a freelance journalist in 1966 and had articles published in The Economic Times, The Indian Express and many other periodicals. She made her debut into making documentary films with Char Divari, a documentary which deals with wife-beating, which was followed soon after by a sequel on related issues involving violence against women in India.
