Dahi Handi is the second day of celebration of Krishna Janmashtami. Dahi Handi 2023 will be celebrated across India on September 7. This commemoration is especially grand in Maharashtra. Dahi Handi is an entertainment and competitive event that is celebrated on the day following Krishna Janmashtami, where trained professionals form a human pyramid and try to break earthen pots with butter inside of them at varying heights. The celebration signifies Lord Krishna’s childhood habit of stealing butter from the neighbourhood - which earned him the title of Makhanchor. To celebrate Dahi Handi, people are sure to share Happy Dahi Handi 2023 wishes and messages, Janmashtami 2023 greetings, Dahi Handi images and wallpapers, Happy Dahi Handi WhatsApp Stickers and Facebook status pictures with family and friends.

The celebration of Dahi Handi is a significant cultural event in Maharashtra. While Janmashtami is focused on the religious celebration of Lord Krishna’s birth, Dahi Handi is focused more on the fun elements of it - which brings communities together. People prepare for months to be a part of the human pyramid and continue to break records of the tallest Handi to be broken, amongst other things. The celebrations of Dahi Handi are not only done by professionals. Various societies also organize Dahi Handi special programs and games where kids can participate in this festivity in a safe manner. Since the breaking of the Handi symbolises Lord Krishna’s childhood habit of breaking butter vessels to eat the butter, most groups have a younger child as the last member of the pyramid who breaks the Handi. From 'Mach Gaya Shor' to 'Woh Kisna Hai' – 7 Bollywood Songs That Celebrate Lord Krishna.
