Galrani was born as the youngest daughter of Manohar Galrani and Reshma at Bangalore.[25] She has an elder sister, Sanjjanaa who is also an actress. Galrani did her PUC from Bishop Cotton Girls College and later took up a course in fashion designing. She said that she did science in PUC because her parents and sister wanted her to become a doctor but that they later let her pursue designing.[26] She then did modelling and appeared in many advertisements.[27]
Galrani attributes her sister Sanjjanaa with being an integral part of her success. "If not for my sister, Sanjjanaa, who's already in the film industry, I would surely have struggled to get a foothold in cinema." Galrani explained that her sister helped her make contacts and get jobs in what Galrani described as an "otherwise very competitive industry ... I would hang around her during her shoots and people would see me. I got into modelling without even a portfolio!".
