What to include in your biodata
What the About Myself section should cover
- Write in the first person — 'I am', not 'He is'. Third person reads like a resume written by an agency.
- Lead with what you do, then who you are. Work gives the reader a foothold; character keeps them reading.
- Name one or two concrete interests instead of a list of five abstract adjectives.
- Mention family values or expectations only if they are genuinely yours — this line gets tested in the first meeting.
- Close forward-looking: what you hope for in a partner or a home, in one line.
What to leave out
- Stacking adjectives — 'simple, caring, loving, honest, down-to-earth' says nothing and appears on thousands of biodatas.
- Copying a sample word for word. Families read many biodatas and recognise stock phrasing immediately.
- Writing a paragraph so long it pushes your family details onto a second page.
- Listing salary or achievements here — those already have their own fields.

About Myself samples written for a boy
Software engineer, Bengaluru — I work as a software engineer in Bengaluru and have been with my current company for four years. Outside work I cook most weekends, play badminton on Sunday mornings, and travel home to Hyderabad once a month. I was raised in a close family that values honesty and keeping our word, and I would like to build the same kind of home — one where both of us have room for our own work and interests.
Family business, Surat — I help run our family's textile business in Surat, which my father started in 1994. I am practical by nature, I prefer a small circle of close friends, and I spend most evenings with family. I am looking for a partner who is comfortable in a joint family setting but has her own career and opinions, and I will support whatever she chooses to pursue.

Frequently asked questions
What should a boy write in the about myself section of a marriage biodata?
The 'About Myself' section of a marriage biodata is a short first-person paragraph — usually three to five lines — that describes who you are beyond your job title: your temperament, how you spend your time, and what you value in family life. The 2 samples on this page are written for a boy's marriage biodata.
How long should the 'About Myself' section be?
Around 40–70 words. That is three to five lines, which sits comfortably beside your photograph on a one-page biodata.
Should I write in first person or third person?
First person. 'I am a software engineer in Bengaluru' reads as you speaking; 'He is a software engineer' reads as an agency listing and creates distance.
Can I copy a sample directly?
Use one as a shape, not as text. Families read dozens of biodatas and spot stock phrasing instantly — swap in your own city, work and interests and it will read far better.
