लग्नाचा बायोडाटा · मराठी विवाह बायोडेटा नमुना
A Marathi marriage biodata (लग्नाचा बायोडाटा) is the one-page document that families exchange when a rishta is being considered. It opens with a short invocation, gives the personal details, family, education, career, and traditional information such as rashi, nakshatra and gotra, and ends with contact details.
Below is the exact field list Marathi families expect to see, a sample biodata you can copy, and a free maker that produces PDF, Word and image versions. No login, no watermark, no upload. Everything stays on your device.
Full field list (मराठी + English)
Marathi biodatas usually run in the order below. The last three columns (rashi, nakshatra, gotra) are the ones matchmakers scan first, so keep them accurate. Skip fields you do not want to share instead of leaving them blank.

Sample Marathi biodata
The traditional opening is || श्री गणेशाय नमः || and the eyebrow is विवाह बायोडेटा. Names use Marathi honorifics: श्री for men, सौ. for married women, कु. for unmarried women.
Community variations
Deshastha, Kokanastha and CKP families usually include gotra, kuldev, and pravar. Deshastha biodatas may also list उपनयन (thread-ceremony) date for the boy.
Marathi Buddhist families typically drop rashi, nakshatra and gotra, and open with a plain विवाह बायोडेटा eyebrow instead of श्री गणेशाय नमः. Include religion (बौद्ध) prominently near the top.
96 Kuli Maratha families often keep देवक (family emblem) and कुळ, and mention the sub-clan under caste. Add these below गोत्र in the same block so a reader can scan them together.
Modern-leaning Marathi families can hide rashi and gotra altogether. The maker lets you toggle traditional details on or off; use the Modern template for a career-first look while keeping the Marathi language.
PDF vs Word: which should you send?
PDF is the safest default. It looks identical on every phone, doesn't require Word or Google Docs, prints cleanly, and cannot be edited by accident. When someone forwards your biodata on WhatsApp, they forward the PDF you approved.
Word (.docx) is useful when the receiving family wants to add a cover page, translate a section, or match a matchmaker's house style. The biodataji Word file preserves fonts and layout for the receiver to tweak. Send Word only when it's asked for, otherwise send PDF.
Image (PNG) is best for WhatsApp status or Instagram stories. Some older Android phones open PNGs faster than PDFs; sending both is fine.
Biodataji exports all three from the same wizard. Fill once, download in the format the receiver expects.
Writing tips for a Marathi biodata
Keep it one page. Marathi families skim the first half. Long biodatas signal that the applicant is unsure what to hide.
Use Marathi script for names and family details, and English for company names, degrees, and technical roles. Mixed script is normal and often preferred.
Be honest about income, height, and horoscope. Inflated numbers are the fastest way to lose trust once matched.
Include a recent photograph. A clear portrait against a plain background works best. Avoid group photos or heavily edited images.
Have someone read it aloud. If a Marathi elder in your family would raise an eyebrow at a phrase, rewrite it. The biodata is a conversation starter for elders as much as the couple.
