Watch: 'Joota maar' Holi with shoes played in UP's Shahjahanpur, no distancing

Social distancing was apparently not followed.
'Joota maar' Holi reportedly involves the designation of one person as 'laat sahab' who is seated on a cart and showered with shoes and colour as his procession passes through the streets.
