Overview

Panchami revolves around the story of a girl who is born in a temple one stormy night and has unique characteristics about her origin. A priest helps Ponchomi's mother in giving birth to Panchomi and gets mortified on seeing that the baby girl is connected to her mother by a snake instead of the umbilical cord. Panchami grows up to be a young girl in a village where everyone regards her as odd as she lives in the temple of Lord Shiva. Despite the negative behavior toward her, Panchami goes around helping people through her special powers.
