From his native place Guler, in Himachal, he moved to Jasrota in around 1740, where he painted most of his works for the local Rajput ruler Mian Zorawar Singh and his son Balwant Singh.

Unlike his conservative brother Manaku, who closely conformed to the style of his father Nainsukh introduced many of the novel elements of Mughal style painting into the traditional Pahari style employed by his family.

He is considered to be one of the creators of Pahari style of painting which later evolved into Basohli painting school.
