Dahi Handi celebrations in Mumbai have been a low key affair this time.

Dahi Handi is a contact sport that involves players, identified as Govindas, forming human pyramids to break the handi.

Usually, Govindas from across Maharashtra competes to break 4000-5000 major Handis in the city.

The government has cancelled its celebrations in Mumbai.

Mandals are hosting symbolic celebrations of the festival with most organising blood donation camps in the city.
