Early life
Sumbul Touqeer was born in Shahjahanpur, Uttar Pradesh and lived in Katni, Madhya Pradesh until she was six. At age six, her parents separated and her father Touqeer Hasan Khan brought Sumbul and her younger sister Saniya to Delhi, where they spent the next 5–6 years. Sumbul and Saniya were raised by their father as a single parent. Sumbul's father was a dance choreographer in Delhi, with the siblings performing in their father's choreographed Krishna and Ram Leela plays, which sparked their interest in dance, and later acting.
Sumbul's father took notice of his daughters' keen interest and talent for dancing, so moved the family to Mumbai in pursuit of opportunities in the entertainment industry.
Sumbul completed High School at NTCC High School in Malad West, Mumbai and 12th standard from a private school. She was briefly enrolled in a commerce course, but decided to withdraw upon realisation of her deep passion for cinematography which she intends to pursue in the near future.
Sumbul has trained as an actor with the Sehejmoodra Acting Academy, run by Monika Verma.
Sumbul had previously mentioned her disinterest in acting during the initial years of her career and preferred to pursue a career in the field of dancing instead. Her father's reassurance of her talent for acting inspired her to make a name for herself as an actor.
