In short
In Marathi, "biodata" is बायोडाटा — a one-page profile of a person's personal, family and education details. For marriage it is called लग्नाचा बायोडाटा (lagnacha biodata). The older Marathi term is परिचय पत्र (parichay patra), which literally means "introduction letter" and is not interchangeable with a biodata.

What is a लग्नाचा बायोडाटा?
बायोडाटा is the Marathi spelling of the English word "biodata", and it means what the English word means: a short written account of who someone is. In मराठी-speaking families it almost always refers to the one-page profile exchanged when a marriage is being arranged — लग्नाचा बायोडाटा.
The part that causes confusion is परिचय पत्र (parichay patra), which literally means "introduction letter". People searching for this often find the two words used near each other and assume they are synonyms. They are not, and the difference matters when a family asks you for one of them.

What बायोडाटा means in Marathi
बायोडाटा is a direct transliteration, so it carries no separate Marathi etymology — it is the English "biodata" written in मराठी script. What it refers to is a single page listing a person's personal details, education, occupation, family and contact information.
Where the marriage sense needs to be explicit, Marathi speakers say लग्नाचा बायोडाटा (lagnacha biodata).
- बायोडाटा — biodata
- लग्नाचा बायोडाटा — marriage biodata
- मुलाचा बायोडाटा पाठवा — "send the boy's biodata"
परिचय पत्र (parichay patra) is not the same thing
Older Maharashtrian families still say parichay patra, and it carries a slightly different expectation: a letter introduces a person, so it reads as prose about the family, while a biodata is a field list. The related word स्थळ (sthal) refers to the proposal itself rather than the document — a family says a sthal has come, meaning a match has been suggested.
| Marathi term | Romanised | What it refers to |
|---|---|---|
| बायोडाटा | biodata | The one-page profile of a person |
| लग्नाचा बायोडाटा | lagnacha biodata | That profile, in the marriage sense specifically |
| परिचय पत्र | parichay patra | Literally "introduction letter" — see above |
Biodata for marriage, or biodata for a job?
For work, Marathi speakers say नोकरीसाठी बायोडाटा (nokrisathi biodata) or simply resume. That document has no family, kul or horoscope section, which is the main practical difference from the marriage version.
The two documents overlap only in the name. A marriage biodata leads with family, community and often horoscope details and gives work a line or two. A job CV inverts that entirely and carries no family section at all — putting your father's occupation on a job application reads as odd, and leaving your family off a marriage biodata reads as evasive.
Making a Marathi biodata without fighting the font
The practical problem with typing a biodata in Marathi is not the words, it is the export. A Word file typed in मराठी renders correctly on your machine and can fall apart on someone else's if the script's font is missing — which is exactly the moment it matters, since the person opening it is the family deciding on the match.
