Nita Ambani, owner of the Mumbai Indians IPL franchise, recently posted a very moving moment with the team, announcing the tragic loss of her family’s much-loved golden retriever, Happy. In a team call, Nita thanked the team for their kind words, especially when Mahela and Hardik mentioned her dog, saying, “It feels so good when everyone says ‘Happy!’ because we lost our dog Happy last night. It’s wonderful to remember him in such a joyful way.”
Happy, who died on April 30, had been part of the Ambani family and had attended several important family events. His presence was particularly noticed at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding. The Ambani family stopped for a moment to pay their respects to him, calling Happy not only a pet but also a faithful companion who filled their lives with huge love and warmth.
The family paid their respects to Happy with a touching floral tribute in the shape of a poster at the wedding that stated, “Dear Happy, you will always be with us and live on in our hearts. Heaven’s gain is our loss.” The fans’ and well-wishers’ outpouring of love when news of Happy’s death emerged only indicated the extent to which he had influenced the hearts of those around him, particularly given his presence through such significant points in the journey of the Ambani family.
Happy’s death signaled the end of an era, but his memory lives on in the hearts of people who knew him.
