Sehban was born in New Delhi where he did his schooling from Apeejay School. He later joined Dyal Singh College in Delhi University to pursue an Honors degree in English literature. He later left the course mid way and is a certified computer engineer who has worked with Wipro in Mumbai. In an interview Sehban reminisces about his education saying he regrets not being able to attend regular classes while he had the time. "I always wanted to pay for my own expenses, and being a part of a generation which had seen the advent of cell phones and the likes, I bunked college to work part time as Master of ceremonies and have even distributed marketing pamphlets to pay for my personal expenses." says Sehban, "In a country where an education loan is priced higher than a car or home loan, I have graduated from the school of hard knocks." Sehban is fitness freak who must visit the gym daily. He is a self-confessed fish junkie and describes himself as an "actor, learner and achiever" on his Twitter. Not many people know that Sehban also writes poetry in his free time.
