1. Card language

English for now. Hindi, Kannada and Marathi cards come once a native reader has checked the wording.

2. Choose a design

3. Who is inviting?

This changes who speaks on the card and whose names are signed at the end.

4. Fill the details

The child

This is the title of the card and the word used in its sentences.

For a boy we write Chi. before the name; a girl is named alone.

Printed under the title in a gold ring. Choose it from your gallery.

The photo stays on this phone. It is never uploaded.

Parents and grandparents

Just the name. The card adds Mrs. / Smt. itself.

Printed after the father's and grandfather's names.

Date and muhurat

Enter the date, the muhurat time and the town: we work out the date line for you.

Leave the time empty if the temple gives no fixed time. The card will show the date and the place.

Not printed. The panchang uses this town, not where you live: a Tirupati mundan uses Tirupati.

Venue and programme

Functions print in date and time order.

Top and bottom of the card

Clear it if you want no line at the top.

Printed as "|| Shree ... Prasanna ||".

Leave it empty to sign with the names above. Add uncles, aunts or children here.

Anything else to print at the foot of the card, as you want it to read.

Card wording

The words the maker starts from, filled with example names. Change the names, the date line and the programme before you make your card.

Questions people ask

What to write on a mundan card?

Who invites (the parents, or the grandparents with the parents named beside the child), the child's name (Chi. before a boy's name), the ceremony, the date with the muhurat time and the tithi line, the havan and mundan times, the venue and the meal. The maker writes it in the style of printed Indian-English cards. The names, the date line, the programme and the lines at the top and bottom are yours to change.

Mundan and ear piercing on the same day, on one card?

Yes. Choose "Mundan and ear piercing" under "What do you call it?" and the title and the sentences name both. If they happen at different times, add each as a row in the programme.

Our mundan is at a temple (Tirupati, Haridwar) with no fixed time. What then?

Leave the muhurat time empty and type the temple's town. The card shows the date and the place without a time. If the temple gives you a time, add it and we write the tithi line for that town and time.

When is mundan done?

Most commonly in the child's first or third year, and many prefer an odd year. Your purohit fixes the muhurat from the child's chart; our mundan guide explains the customs.

Is my child's photo or our address uploaded anywhere?

No. The card is drawn on your own phone or computer, and the photo, the names and the address stay there. Only the date, time and town go to our server, to work out the date line.

What does it cost, and can I change it later?

Nothing: making the card and downloading the WhatsApp image and the print PDF are always free, with no sign-up. The card carries a small purohit.app line at the foot; removing it is a small fee of ₹10, paid once for this card by UPI, card or netbanking, which helps us keep Purohit.app running.
