The incarnation of Sri Narasimha was on Chaturdasi and not during Mahapradosham; generally, the evening period after sunset is called Pradosha kalam; based on which this period is special for Sri Narasimha. Moreover, the Agama-s have mentioned that aradhanam of Sri Narasimha during Mahapradosham period is special; hence we follow this.
The Agama-s say “nrisimhaM rAghavaM vinA” – one can also worship Raghavan during the Pradosha kalam; not sure about any other specific association that could exist. Because there is a mention in the Agama-s, some also worship Raghavan during the Pradosha kalam. Some others worship SriNarasimha only and not other Perumal-s.
Because it is said that Panagam is a special offering to Sri Narasimha and is included in our tradition, we do so.
