Holi recieves this name in the state of
Haryana. Here,
bhabhi - the brothers wife gets an upper hand on the day of holi. And,
devar's - husband's younger brothers need to watchout.
The bhabhi's on this day get a social sanction on Holi to beat their devars
and make them pay the price of all the pranks they played on them for the
entire year. Bhabhi's roll up their saris in the form of a rope in a mock
rage, and give a good run to their devars.
In the evening, devars are supposed to bring sweets for their dear bhabhi.
Besides, there is also a tradition of breaking the pot of buttermilk hung
high in the street by forming a human pyramid.
