By the numbers

How many people in India speak Marathi as their mother tongue?

Marathi is the mother tongue of 8,30,26,680 people in India, about 8.3 crore, according to the Census of India 2011 ¹. That is 6.86% of the population, the third-largest share after Hindi and Bengali ¹.

Marathi speakers grew by 15.42% between 2001 and 2011 ¹. Their share of India's population slipped from 7.62% in 1971 to 6.86% in 2011, because other languages grew faster ¹.

State	Marathi speakers (Census 2011)
Maharashtra	7,74,61,172
Karnataka	20,64,906
Madhya Pradesh	12,31,285
Gujarat	9,20,345
Andhra Pradesh (undivided)	6,74,928
Goa	1,58,787
Chhattisgarh	1,44,035

About 20.6 lakh Marathi speakers live in Karnataka, more than in any state outside Maharashtra ¹. The census also groups the Are and Koli mother tongues under Marathi, with 53,879 and 13,809 speakers ¹.

Marathi names

What are the Marathi words for patrika, mangal dosh and matching?

Marathi calls the birth chart a patrika, and matching two charts is patrika julavne. The other words are close to Hindi but spelled and said the Marathi way, as the table shows.

Marathi	Said as	What it means
ज्योतिषी	jyotishi	An astrologer
पत्रिका / कुंडली	patrika / kundali	The birth chart; patrika is the everyday Marathi word
पत्रिका जुळवणे / कुंडली जुळवणे	patrika julavne / kundali julavne	Matching two charts before marriage
गुण मिलन	gun milan	The 36-point score of eight kootas
मंगळ दोष	mangal dosh	Mars in certain houses of the chart
सौम्य मंगळ / कडक मंगळ	saumya mangal / kadak mangal	A mild and a strong mangal, a split many Marathi astrologers use
साडेसाती	sadesati	Saturn's seven-and-a-half-year transit around the Moon sign
कालसर्प योग	kalsarpa yog	All planets between Rahu and Ketu; Marathi often says yog, not dosh
पितृदोष	pitrudosh	A chart pattern linked to ancestors
नाडी दोष	nadi dosh	Both partners in the same nadi
लग्नाचे मुहूर्त	lagnache muhurta	Wedding dates from the panchang
बारसे / नामकरण	barse / namkaran	A baby's naming ceremony

Marathi lunar months end on the new moon, the amanta way. Drik Panchang lists Maharashtra with Gujarat, Karnataka and the southern states as amanta, while Uttar Pradesh and Bihar are purnimanta ². So a Marathi date and a Hindi date can carry different month names in the dark fortnight.

When you share a birth date written as a Marathi tithi and month, a Marathi-speaking astrologer reads it in the amanta system without converting by hand. On Kismo you can ask that question by chat or call at one rate per astrologer, from ₹15 a minute.

Calendars

Which calendar and panchang do Marathi families use?

Most Marathi homes keep Kalnirnay on the wall and check a printed panchang for muhurtas. Kalnirnay was started in 1973 by Jayantrao Salgaonkar as a hand-printed almanac for 10,000 Marathi subscribers ³.

Kalnirnay sold 25,000 copies in 1974, and the Audit Bureau of Circulation put sales across its editions at 1.8 crore, the Free Press Journal reported in 2021 ⁴. It now comes in nine languages, Marathi first ⁴.

Salgaonkar was himself an astrologer who wrote thousands of astrology columns, DNA reported when he died in 2013 at 84 ³. One of his books, Dharmashastriya Nirnay, dealt with rulings on rites and dates ³.

For muhurtas many families look to an older almanac, the Date panchang, which describes itself as a traditional panchang and astrological service since 1916 ⁵.

The Marathi new year starts on Gudi Padwa, the first day of Chaitra. The Free Press Journal gave its 2026 date as 19 March, citing Drik Panchang, and called it the Marathi New Year ⁶. The Calendar Reform Committee noted that Indian almanac makers still do their calculations in the Saka era and then convert them ⁷.

Customs

When do Marathi families hold weddings and other rites?

Marathi weddings mostly wait until chaturmas is over. The Sringeri Math's Pune branch writes that marriage muhurtas there are usually fixed only after chaturmasya, which runs from mid-July to mid-November ⁸.

Tulsi vivah closes that pause. The Pune Sringeri branch performs it on the Kartika dwadashi ⁸. Nagpur Today described the 2024 ceremony in Dhantoli, Nagpur, as the start of the Hindu marriage season ⁹.

The Tulsi vivah copies a Marathi wedding. A white cloth, the antarpat, is held between bride and groom while the priest recites the mangalashtaka, and rice with vermilion is thrown at the word savadhan ⁹.

Matching before a Marathi wedding follows the eight kootas and 36 gunas described in Muhurta Chintamani ¹⁰. Marathi families add their own words for mangal: saumya for a mild placement and kadak for a strong one. Which houses count as each differs from one astrologer to the next, so ask yours how they draw the line.

Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra gives the classical manglik rule: Mars in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house of a woman's chart, without a benefic aspect or conjunction ¹¹. That condition, a benefic aspect or conjunction, is one reason astrologers read the same placement as saumya in one patrika and kadak in another.

Before you pay anyone

How do you know an astrologer is genuine?

Every Kismo astrologer passes four steps: qualification review, panel interview, live audits of real sessions, 30-day probation.
Nobody can guarantee an outcome. Treat any promise of a fixed result as a red flag.
Never pay for an expensive puja or ritual under pressure. Get a second opinion first.
On Kismo you only pay for the minutes you use; misconduct, pressure or a request for money outside the app is handled by a person.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Can I talk to a Marathi astrologer online in Marathi?

Yes, many Vedic astrologers consult online in Marathi, by chat or by phone call. You can type in Devanagari or write Marathi in English letters, and ask about your patrika, sadesati or a wedding date. Online sessions work from Pune, Nagpur, Belagavi or abroad alike. Choose an astrologer who lists Marathi among their languages before you begin.

What does patrika julavne mean, and how many gun should match?

Patrika julavne means matching the birth charts of a bride and groom before marriage. The astrologer scores eight kootas worth 36 gun in all, and many treat 18 as the lowest acceptable score. Most astrologers then look beyond the score, at mangal, the 7th house and the running dashas in both patrikas, before giving an opinion.

What is saumya mangal and kadak mangal in Marathi astrology?

Saumya mangal is a mild mangal dosh and kadak mangal a strong one, a split many Marathi astrologers use. The split depends on which house Mars occupies and whether something in the chart softens it. Astrologers do not all draw the line in the same place, so ask yours which houses they count before you worry about either word.

What does a Marathi astrologer cost on Kismo?

On Kismo, each astrologer sets one rate for both chat and call, from ₹15 a minute. Billing is per started minute from a wallet, and the smallest top-up is ₹100. You are charged only for minutes used, and the balance stays for your next session. The rate shows on each astrologer's profile before you start.

Is there a free Marathi jyotish chat?

Yes, the first session on Kismo carries 5 free minutes, with no card needed. You can use them with a Marathi-speaking astrologer for one focused question, such as whether two patrikas match. Have the birth details ready so the free minutes go on the answer. After that the astrologer's own per-minute rate applies.

Why are there no wedding muhurtas between July and November?

Most Marathi panchangs give few or no wedding muhurtas in chaturmas, roughly mid-July to mid-November. Many families treat these four months as Vishnu's rest, and the season reopens after Kartiki Ekadashi and Tulsi vivah. The exact dates move each year with the lunar calendar. Check the panchang your family follows, or ask an astrologer for the first good dates after Tulsi vivah.

How can I tell if an online Marathi jyotishi is genuine?

A genuine jyotishi explains what they see in your patrika and never promises a fixed outcome. Red flags are talk of disaster in the family, pressure to book an expensive kalsarpa shanti or other puja, and requests for payment outside the app. Kismo puts each astrologer through a qualification review, a panel interview, live audits of real sessions and a 30-day probation. Get a second opinion before paying for any ritual.

My son lives abroad. Can a Marathi astrologer match his patrika from here?

Yes, a Marathi astrologer can match patrikas wherever the two families live, since the session runs by chat or call. Give each birth time in the local time of the place of birth, with the town's name. For the wedding muhurta, name the city where the wedding will be held, because sunrise and tithi timings change with place.

Do I need my exact birth time for a Marathi patrika?

An exact birth time gives the most reliable patrika, because the lagna changes about every two hours. Gun milan itself needs only the Moon's nakshatra, which a rough time often gives correctly. If the time is unknown, tell the astrologer, who may work from the nakshatra alone or suggest birth time rectification first.
