Key takeaways
- Birth star (natchathiram) and padam (pada) are the most important astrological fields in a Tamil biodata.
- Kulam and gotram are expected for Tamil Brahmin and most non-Brahmin alliances.
- Specify sampraday for Iyer (sub-group: Vadama, Brihacharanam etc.) and Iyengar (Vadakalai/Thenkalai).
- The full jathagam (horoscope) travels as a separate PDF; biodata provides the key details.
- Ancestral ur (village) and nattu (region) are culturally significant fields.
Tamil Biodata Format: Overview
A Tamil marriage biodata gives primacy to astrological detail and community identification. It is typically accompanied by a full jathagam (horoscope). The biodata is the social introduction; the jathagam is the technical document for the family astrologer.
Birth Star and Padam
Natchathiram (nakshatra) and padam (pada/quarter) are primary astrological identifiers. Include rasi (rashi/moon sign) and lagnam (lagna/ascendant) as well. Certain stars and padam combinations carry matching restrictions; families verify these during jathagam review.
Kulam, Gotram and Sub-Community
For Tamil Brahmins: specify sampraday (Iyer/Iyengar), sub-group within each, and gotram. For non-Brahmin communities: specify kulam and ancestral ur. Same-gotram marriages are avoided.
Sampraday Details for Brahmin Families
Iyer families should specify sub-group: Vadama, Brihacharanam, Ashtasahasram, Vathima etc. Iyengar families should specify Vadakalai or Thenkalai. These distinctions drive matching within the Tamil Brahmin network.
Non-Brahmin Community Fields
Mudaliar, Pillai, Chettiar, Nadar, Gounder, Naidu, Thevar sub-groups each have distinct community networks. For Chettiar families, nattu name is significant. State kulam and ur clearly.
Chevvai Dosham (Mangal Dosha)
State chevvai dosham (yes/no) on the biodata. The detailed check happens during jathagam review, but an upfront disclosure prevents a common early-process question.
Ancestral Ur and Nattu
Ancestral village and district place the candidate in the Tamil community network. Diaspora families (Singapore, Malaysia, USA, UK) still name their ancestral ur even after multiple generations.

FAQ
Can I print labels in Tamil?
Yes — Tamil script labels render with Noto Sans Tamil for clean PDF output.
Which astrology fields are standard?
Rasi, nakshatra and gothram; lagnam when exact birth time is entered.
What is the difference between a Tamil biodata and a jathagam?
The biodata is the one-page social profile; the jathagam is the full astrological document. Both are typically shared together. The family reads the biodata; the astrologer analyses the jathagam.
Which natchathirams have matching restrictions?
Certain stars (Kettai, Moolam, Aayilyam) and specific padams have traditional matching restrictions in some communities. The family astrologer determines applicability — not the biodata itself.
Should I include the full jathagam in the biodata PDF?
Conventionally, no — the jathagam travels as a separate document. The biodata includes the key astrological fields and a link or note indicating that the jathagam is available on request.
