What is a Maratha marriage biodata?

A Maratha marriage biodata — often called a lagna patrika or parichay patra — is the one-page profile families exchange before matching patrikas (horoscopes). It opens with a Ganesh or Shri Swami Samarth invocation and, beyond name, education and family, carries the details a Maratha match is actually screened on: the devak (clan totem), the kul or clan among the 96 Kuli Marathas, the gotra, and the kuldaivat (family deity). The astrology block — rashi, nakshatra, gan, nadi and mangal — sits alongside the exact birth date, time and place so the two patrikas can be compared. In practice, devak and kuldaivat are checked first, before a patrika is even shared.

Which fields matter in a Maratha biodata?

Alongside the usual personal, education and family details, a Maratha biodata carries the lineage and astrology fields families match on. The devak is the clan's sacred totem — a leaf, plant, feather or object worshipped at weddings; two families with the same devak are treated as one lineage, so a same-devak match is usually avoided, much like same-gotra. Add your kul / clan (from the 96 Kuli Marathas — Bhosale, Jadhav, Shinde, More, Ghorpade and others), the gotra, and the kuldaivat (Khandoba, Tuljabhavani, Bhavani, Mahalaxmi). The astrology block — rashi, nakshatra, gan, nadi and mangal (Mars) status — goes with the exact date, time and place of birth for patrika matching. Note whether the family is 96-Kuli Maratha or Kunbi, since matches are often within the same community. LagnBiodata has ready fields for all of these — keep what you need and remove the rest.

Tips for a strong Maratha biodata

• State your devak and kul clearly — many Maratha families check devak and kuldaivat before they even look at the patrika.
• Give the exact birth date, time and place with rashi, nakshatra, gan, nadi and mangal so both patrikas can be matched in one go.
• Add your kuldaivat (Khandoba, Tuljabhavani, Bhavani) and mool gaav (native place) — families look for them.
• Keep it to one A4 page and download at 300 DPI so the print stays sharp for the mela / katta.
• Build it in Marathi in a click — type in English and get Devanagari automatically — then share the PDF on WhatsApp.
