Devisha Shetty was born on November 7, 1993, into a South Indian family in Mumbai. Her father Devdas Shetty is a hotelier, and her mother Lata Shetty is a homemaker. Devisha is the youngest in her family, as she also has an elder sister named Deeksha Shetty.
Raised in a well to-do family in Mumbai, Devisha Shetty studied at the Bombay Scottish School in Mumbai, followed by a graduation from R.A. Podar College of Commerce & Economics in Mumbai. While formal studies are a part of growing-up, it was dance that Devisha was always passionate about. So much so that she pursued it professionally and became a trained dancer, and later a dance coach in Mumbai.
