film techniques - How slow motion Holi scenes are shot?

These types of shots are achieved using a high-speed camera, as alluded to in the comments preceding your question.

Newer technology has allowed filmmakers to shoot with digital cameras that can record between 2,000 to 5,000 frames per second - subsequently when the film is played back at a standard 24 FPS or 30 FPS the result is super slow-motion.

There are a number of films that utilize this technique, and a handful of TV shows including Spartacus, but the best examples of the filming technique can be found on the show Time Warp.
