While the dance form has religious roots, it is also celebrated as a cultural tradition and is often performed during festivals and other special occasions. It is a significant part of the cultural heritage of Tamil Nadu and continues to be practiced by many communities to this day.

The dance gets its name from the use of a sacred flag or "Pandham," which is carried during the performance.
