The celebrations of Krishna Janmashtami have begun and today people are enthusiastically celebrating Dahi Handi. Govindas from different groups come together at various Dahi Handi events organised in the state. Mumbai has been seeing the enthusiasm since morning. While participants train hard to make human pyramids and break the Handi (pot filled with curd and butter), it is even more enjoyable to those who are watching it. The tradition has been going on since years and there are specific teams that earn their record by making the tallest human pyramids. Jai Jawan Govinda Pathak from Jogeshwari is one among them. This year Jai Jawan Govinda Pathak has made an 8-layered human pyramid in Thane and are aiming to make a 9-layered soon. Pro Govinda 2018 Thane Promo Video: Dahi Handi League With 10 Teams to Make Krishna Janmashtami Exciting.

Watch through their skills and you'd be stunned seeing their efficiency. The group has earned that reputation for the very reason. They are swift at their human pyramids and undoubtedly impressive. With the way they are practising we are sure we would get to see some amazing human pyramid formations even this year.
