Dating in Kolkata
Kolkata is a city that still values a long conversation, and Wrati is built for exactly that: knowing what someone thinks, what they read and what they are looking for before deciding whether to meet them.
Free to join for men and women
What dating in Kolkata is actually like
The metro north to south line does most of the work of getting people to each other, and a first meeting near a station is the practical default rather than a compromise.
Coffee houses and adda culture mean an unhurried first conversation is normal here in a way it simply is not in newer cities. Nobody is watching the clock.
Bengali and English move interchangeably through most conversations, and the language someone is most themselves in is worth knowing before you meet.
Dating, relationships and marriage in Kolkata
Whatever you are looking for, you say it up front. Your intention — Marriage, Long term, Short term and others — is shown to the people you match with, so someone looking for a life partner and someone looking to date can each find people who want the same thing.

Meeting safely
Keep conversations in the app until you trust someone, meet in a busy public place, tell a friend your plans and never send money to someone you have not met. If anyone makes you uncomfortable, block and report them — both are free for everyone. Read more in our safety guide and privacy policy.

Frequently asked questions
Is Wrati free for both men and women?
Yes. Creating a profile, photo verification, discovering people, matching and starting conversations are free for everyone. Premium is optional and adds extras such as unlimited chats and calling.
Can I use Wrati if I am looking for marriage rather than dating?
Yes. When you set up your profile you choose what you are looking for — Marriage, Long term, Short term and other intentions — and that is shown to the people you match with, so marriage-minded members can find each other without guessing.
Will other members see my phone number?
No. Your mobile number is never shown to other members. You can chat, and with Premium call, inside the app before deciding to share anything else. Blocking and reporting are free for everyone.
