During this festival, large earthen pots filled with milk, curds, butter, honey, fruits and coins are suspended at a height of 20-40 feet from the ground. Young men and boys (Govindas) form a human pyramid by standing over each other's shoulders.

When the pyramid is tall enough, the topmost person in the pyramid would reach out and break the pot to claim its contents as well as the currency notes tied to the rope by which the pot hangs. This prize money is distributed among those who formed the human pyramid.
