You can do this by adding renderer in you column. here is the example.

In your _prepareColumns() function of the Grid.php file add renderer in your Seller column

    protected function _prepareColumns() {
   //other columns data
  $this->addColumn('seller_id', array(
    'header'    => Mage::helper('adminhtml')->__('Seller Name),
    'align' => 'center',
    'index'     => 'seller_id',
    'type'  => 'text',
    'renderer' => 'Namespace_ModuleName_Block_Adminhtml_Seller_Grid_Renderer_SellerName',     
 ));
 }

Create SellerName.php file in this location

app/code/{{your_code_pool}}/Namespace/ModuleName/Block/Adminhtml/Seller/Grid/Renderer/SellerName.php

and Add this code.

class Namespace_ModuleName_Block_Adminhtml_Seller_Grid_Renderer_SellerName extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Column_Renderer_Abstract
    {
          public function render(Varien_Object $row)
          {
             return "your logic here to return seller name."
          }
    }

Replace Namespace_ModuleName with your Namespace and ModuleName.
