Really disappointing ! Not a single photo consists of the deities pictures, provided there are so many Krishna temples in Mumbai of which ISKCON Juhu is the foremost. There were grandest celebrations and kirtans going on there but rediff never bothered to visit the temple and get some nice pics of Radha-Krishna for its readers.
Only materialistic dahi handi pics are protrayed. Those who are playing the game might not have thought of Krishna even a single second the entire day. They were busy in winning the competitions. People have lost the significance of the advent of Lord Krishna.
No relevance of Krishna and Bhagvad Gita can be seen in these pics. This was not expected of rediff ! a real shame.

You are right in saying that world is becoming more materialistic today & rediff coverage is disappointing, but why r u blaming Govindas?
How can you say that those guys might not have thought of Krishna even a single second?
You may not be aware that they risk their live in this game, they begin this game by having Krishna's name in their mouth.
Now this activity of Human Pyramid is becoming popular in Europe too. Govindas from Mumbai already visited there & they are propagating the significance of Krishna in their way.
Let them do it in their way...Govinda Aa La re...Aala

I am sorry I didnt know that bcoz I am not from Mumbai. I felt they are some college students participating in some competition.
I apologise for any offense I committed to the devotees of Krishna knowingly or unknowingly.
