Marriage biodata maker

How to make your biodata

1. Choose the language. Switching later keeps what you have typed and changes only the labels.
2. Pick the top line, such as ॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥, or write your own, or choose none.
3. Add a recent photo. It is placed at the top right and cropped neatly.
4. Fill in the rows. Leave a row empty and it does not appear. Type over a label to change it, or add a row for anything else.
5. Choose a design and download. Use the JPG to share on WhatsApp and the PDF to print.

What to include

• Personal: name, date, time and place of birth, height, education, occupation and income. Add religion, caste, gotra, rashi or manglik only if your family wants them.
• Family: parents’ names and occupations, brothers and sisters, and your native place.
• Contact: a phone number of a parent or yourself, and the city. A full home address can wait until families have spoken.

Tips for a good biodata

• Keep it to one page. Long paragraphs are rarely read.
• Use a clear, recent photo with a plain background and good light.
• Write facts plainly. “M.Sc. Computer Science, working at a software company in Pune” says more than a list of adjectives.
• Check spellings of names and dates twice; they are the first things people notice.

Your details stay with you

A biodata holds personal family details and a photo. Here it is made entirely on your phone or computer; nothing is uploaded. The draft (without the photo) can be kept on your device so you can come back to it; untick the option if the device is shared.
