Kundli Matching for Marriage (Gun Milan) Online
Last updated: June 2026
Kundli matching (Gun Milan or Kundli Milan) compares two birth charts before marriage. The Ashtakoota method scores eight factors out of a total of 36 gunas; AstroKiran computes the score, checks for Manglik and Nadi dosha, and explains what the result actually means for the couple.
What is Gun Milan?
Gun Milan is the traditional Vedic method of checking marriage compatibility by comparing the Moon signs and nakshatras of two people. The Ashtakoota system awards points across eight kootas — Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi — adding up to a maximum of 36 gunas.
A score of 18 or above is conventionally considered acceptable, 24 to 32 is very good, and a perfect 36 is rare. But the score is only a starting point — the placement of Mars, the Bhakoot and Nadi doshas, and the strength of each chart matter just as much.
The eight kootas explained
Each koota weighs a different dimension of the relationship:
- Varna (1) — temperament and ego compatibility.
- Vashya (2) — mutual attraction and control.
- Tara (3) — health and well-being of the couple.
- Yoni (4) — physical and intimate compatibility.
- Graha Maitri (5) — mental and intellectual rapport.
- Gana (6) — temperament type and shared values.
- Bhakoot (7) — family welfare, finances and emotional bond.
- Nadi (8) — health and progeny; the highest single weight.
Manglik and Nadi dosha
Two factors often cause worry: Manglik (Mangal) dosha, when Mars sits in certain houses, and Nadi dosha, when both partners share the same Nadi. Neither is automatically a deal-breaker — many are cancelled by other placements, and AstroKiran explains whether a dosha genuinely applies to your charts and what remedies are traditionally suggested.
Matching is offered for guidance and self-reflection, not as a verdict on any relationship. Treat it as one input among many.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good kundli matching score?
Out of 36 gunas, 18 or above is considered acceptable for marriage, 24 to 32 is very good, and 36 is rare. The score is a guideline — doshas and overall chart strength matter alongside it.
Can a marriage work below 18 gunas?
Yes. A low Gun Milan score does not doom a relationship. Many low scores are offset by favourable placements, and many strong marriages exist below 18. Consider the full picture, not just the number.
What details are needed for both people?
The date, exact time and place of birth for both partners. As with a single kundli, accurate birth time and place make the matching reliable.
Is Manglik dosha always a problem?
No. Manglik dosha is frequently cancelled by other factors in the chart, or balanced when both partners are Manglik. AstroKiran tells you whether it genuinely applies to your charts.
