Dahi Handi (dahi: curd, handi: earthen pot) or Govinda Sport is an Indian festival, celebrated every August, that involves making a human pyramid and breaking an earthen pot filled with curd tied at a convenient height. This event is based on the legend of the child-god Krishna stealing butter
It involves both festivities and a bit of daring to climb does seven layers of pyramids. But Mumbaikars turn out in droves to watch this fabulous festival which symbolises the pranks Lord Krishna played in Gokul
