Krishna Janmashtami celebrates the birth of Lord Krishna, the eighth incarnation of the Hindu deity, Vishnu. This festive celebration includes community prayer, distributing prasad (ritual offerings), fasting, and of course folk music. Janmashtami is also called Dahi Handi. On this day, young boys and girls gather around a pot of sweetened dahi (yogurt) hung and form a human pyramid to reach and break it. It is a fun tradition that has been passed down through generations.
