Bohra was born into a family with existing connections to the entertainment industry; his grandparents were associated with film production and distribution. He grew up in Mumbai and entered the screen industry as a child artiste before transitioning into adult roles in television.
Bohra first gained public attention as a child actor in the Sony Entertainment Television series Just Mohabbat, which aired in the late 1990s and followed the life of a young schoolboy. The show became one of his earliest career-defining credits.
He went on to appear in Ekta Kapoor's Kasautii Zindagii Kay on STAR Plus. He played pivotal roles in Dil Se Di Dua... Saubhagyavati Bhava? on Life OK, where he portrayed an antagonist husband, and in Qubool Hai on Zee TV. He also appeared in Naagin 2 on Colors TV, a supernatural drama produced by Balaji Telefilms.
Bohra was a contestant on Bigg Boss 12, the Hindi-language reality show hosted by Salman Khan and broadcast on Colors TV. He has also participated in stunt-based and dance-based reality formats on Indian television.
In addition to television, Bohra has appeared in Hindi feature films and web series, taking on supporting and lead roles across genres including thriller and drama.
Bohra co-founded a production house with his wife, Teejay Sidhu, through which the couple have been involved in content creation for digital and television platforms.
Bohra is married to Canadian-born television presenter and VJ Teejay Sidhu. The couple have twin daughters, and later a third daughter. Sidhu has been a host on several Indian television shows, and the two are frequently associated with joint media appearances.
Bohra is regarded as a representative figure of the early-2000s generation of Hindi television actors who transitioned from child roles to adult lead parts on saas-bahu and supernatural daily soaps. His sustained presence across networks such as STAR Plus, Zee TV, Life OK and Colors TV reflects the broader expansion of Hindi general entertainment channels during that period.
