Dahi Handi is a vibrant festival celebrated primarily in Maharashtra and Goa, occurring the day after Krishna Janmashtami. This event commemorates the playful childhood exploits of Lord Krishna, particularly his love for curd (dahi) and butter. Today, Dahi Handi has evolved into a competitive sport. Teams of young men, known as "Govindas," compete to build the tallest and most stable human pyramids to break the pots suspended high above the ground.
