Marathi Biodata Format: Overview
A Marathi marriage biodata follows the standard one-page Indian format but places strong emphasis on genealogical detail, horoscope particulars and native place. Community sub-group identification is a first-pass filter.
Sub-Community Field
Deshast, Kokanastha (Chitpavan), Karhade, Saraswat, CKP, Somavanshi, Kunbi, Mali, Agri — state your community clearly. Many Marathi families match within their sub-community first before considering broader matches.
Gotra, Kul and Pravara
All three genealogical identifiers are used by traditional Brahmin and CKP families. Gotra is the broad lineage; kul is the clan; pravara lists the Vedic seers. A family purohit can confirm these from the family's vamshavruksha if uncertain.
Horoscope and Patrika
Include nakshatra, nakshatra charan (quarter/pada), rashi, lagna and manglik status on the biodata. The full patrika (kundli) typically travels as a separate PDF. A ShubhLekha kundli link in the footer serves the same purpose in digital exchange.
Native Place (Gaav)
Ancestral village and district are socially meaningful beyond geography — they place the family in its regional network. For families settled in Pune, Mumbai or Nashik for generations, stating the ancestral gaav is still common and appreciated.
Kuldevata
Kuldevata (family deity) and the temple where they are worshipped — Tuljabhavani, Jyotiba, Mahalaxmi, Ekvira etc. — is an optional but culturally warm addition to the biodata. It is a natural first conversation topic for traditional families.
Language
A Marathi-language biodata or bilingual Marathi + English version is preferred for direct family exchanges. English-only is acceptable for online matrimony platforms.
Format
One A4 PDF. Patrika as a separate attachment. A kundli link in the footer for digital exchanges.

FAQ
Can the biodata be in Marathi?
Yes — choose Marathi in the language picker; all labels render in Devanagari Marathi.
Which fields are essential?
Name, birth details, education, occupation, parents' details and contact — gotra and horoscope fields are community-dependent.
What is pravara and why does it appear on Marathi biodatas?
Pravara lists the ancient Vedic rishis (seers) from whom the gotra lineage descends — typically three or five names. Some traditional families avoid same-pravara marriages as well as same-gotra ones. Your family purohit can provide the correct pravara.
Is manglik status important for Marathi alliances?
Yes, for most traditional families. Manglik status is checked during kundli milan. Including it on the biodata prevents unnecessary delay.
Should I prepare a Marathi and English version?
Yes — Marathi for elder-facing exchanges and matrimony bureau submissions; English for online platforms. A ShubhLekha biodata serves as the English-facing version.
