Happy was the owner of a luxurious car
Happy wasn't just a symbol of affection—he was treated with the kind of luxury reserved for royalty. Anant Ambani, known for his love for animals, reportedly bought a Rs 2.55–3 crore worth Mercedes-Benz G400d SUV exclusively for Happy. According to a post by Automobili Ardent India, this luxury diesel SUV was used solely to chauffeur the pup.
Happy at Anant and Radhika's wedding
Happy was more than a companion; he was family, and that status extended to every key celebration in the Ambani household. He was the official ring bearer at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's engagement in January 2023 and was present at the pre-wedding festivities in Jamnagar, where he appeared in family portraits. Most memorably, Happy attended the couple's wedding on July 12, 2024, at the Jio World Centre in Mumbai, dressed to impress.
The adorable retriever wore a pink Banarasi silk brocade jacket at the mandap, a look that quickly went viral online. The outfit, crafted by Pankh Designer Pet Wear in Mumbai, was made from pure silk jacquard fabric.
