Uriyadi is a Hindu festive community event which features a pot-breaking game. It is found in villages and towns of South India during Onam and Krishna Janamastami in Kerala. In principle its inspiration is similar to Dahi Handi celebrations in Deccan and north India, but instead of a human pyramid of Dahi Handi, in Uriyadi one or more individuals with a band covering their eyes try to break the pot while the community tries to distract them by splashing water or confusing directions.
