In Bharatanatyam, the margam typically consists of a sequence of items or compositions that are performed in a specific order. The number of items in a traditional Bharatanatyam margam can vary, but it usually includes items such as Alarippu, Jatiswaram, Varnam, Padams, and Tillana. A complete margam may consist of around 7 to 9 items, but this can vary based on the individual dancer's preferences and the length of the performance.

Before Tanjore Quartet, there were 18 items.

Now, there will be about 6 or 7 numbers in a bharatanatyam margam: pushpanjali, allaripu, jatiswaram, varnam, thillana, and shabdam and/or padam. in an arangetram, some students choose to do extra numbers by dancing more than one abhinaya (expressions) piece.
