dbo:abstract | - Els govindes són les torres humanes que s'alcen segons la tradició hinduista durant el festival religiós hindú Janmaashtami, que cau en un dia entre mitjans d'agost i mitjans de setembre del calendari gregorià, per celebrar el naixement de Krixna, també anomenat Govinda. L'any 2010 va ser el 27 de setembre. Aquest festival és més conegut popularment a Bombai i Pune (Maharashtra, Índia) com a Dahi Handi, si bé actualment es tendeix a considerar-lo un esport local amb el nom de govinda. També s'anomenen govindes els nois que participen en la construcció de les torres, agrupats en colles que s'anomenen genèricament Govinda Pathak. (ca)
- Dahi Handi (also known as Gopal Kala or Utlotsavam) is an entertainment and competitive event associated with Krishna Janmashtami, the Hindu festival celebrating the birth of Krishna. During the event, which takes place during August or September on the day after Krishna Janmashtami. It involves communities hanging a clay pot filled with yogurt (dahi), butter, or another milk-based food at a convenient or tall height. Young men and boys form teams, make a human pyramid, and attempt to reach or break the pot. As they do so, people surround them, sing, play music, and cheer them on. It is a public spectacle, and an old tradition. More recently, Dahi Handi was lavished with media coverage, prize money and commercial sponsorships. The event is based on the legend of the god Krishna along with his friends mischievously stealing butter and other curd from neighbouring homes in Gokul as a child. He is also called Makhan chor or butter thief. The neighbours would try to avert his mischief by hanging the pots high out of his reach, but Krishna would find creative ways to reach them. (en)

El objetivo de la actividad es alcanzar y romper un bote, a modo de piñata, denominado handi, que se rellena de leche, yogur o mantequilla, y se cuelga a gran altura. Los participantes, denominados govindas, se agrupan en equipos, llamados govinda pathak, que construyen torres humanas con el objetivo de alcanzar el handi y verter su contenido. (es)
