The word Arangetram is derived from Tamil and signifies ascending to next stage by a dancer. In any classical dance form, Arangetram has got a lot of significance. It is just like a graduate ceremony, which is usually done after a person achieves certain skills in a particular dance form. For example, in Bharatanatyam, when a dancer completes a series of dances, they will be ready for the Arangetram. This is usually done only in the presence of close friends, family, and a few guests. Once the dancer has completed their training, they should possess adequate knowledge and understanding of classical music and various aspects of dancing.
