Janmashtami - Mumbai 2007

Janmashtami in Mumbai 4th Sept 2007
Human pyramids - gymnastic feats in Mumbai - Colaba, part of Lord Krishna Celebrations.
One of the traditional ways to celebrate Krishna Janmashtami in Mumbai is for gangs of revellers to form human pyramids reaching upto 8, 9 or even 10 layers high to reach for a pot of curd (Dahi Handi) hung high above the street. While it's mostly men who form the tall pyramids, women actively participate too.

ku means bad. and ti means who is bad. Kutinati means duplicious. Kutti with two 't's means bitch. All are applicable lol (in our case) But inspite of our disqualification, we aspire to be the great devotees of the devotees of Sri Krishna.
