The ritual of Dahi Handi is carried out with much fanfare and joy. Human pyramid is formed to break the Handi (Earthen Pot) balanced from top with the help of a rope. The exciting process involves spilling of water by the viewers to prevent the boys from breaking the pot. In Mumbai alone, it is believed that more than a lakh people will participate in Dahi Handi celebrations.
