Megha mentioned, “Well, I used to celebrate the festival at home with my mother. We used to dress up Lord Krishna, offer bhog and pray to him.”
Namish added, “I am from Delhi and during that time all the people from my neighbourhood were like relatives. We children used to dress up as Laxman, Lord Ram, Shree Krishna and other mythological characters.”
Shruti, who belongs to Mumbai said, “Well, we used to break dahi handi. I used to be in the girls group and I used to participate in it.”
Namish was questioned if he resonates with the dahi handi festive vibe. He expressed, “I live in Andheri and I have seen how there are people climbing so high up to break the handi. It is beautiful. I have never seen this kind of environment.”
Megha added to this saying, “There was a time when I was shooting in film city during the time of Janmashtami and while getting out I saw two three teams trying to break the Handi. There is a lot of craze about dahi handi over here.” (Also Read: Manmohan Tiwari Reflects on Janmashtami and Cherished Childhood Memories in Rishikesh)
