Delhi recently buzzed not with political intrigue, but with the delightful wag of a tail as OG Star, the iconic Labrador affectionately known as the 'original star' of the Delhi Confidential column, celebrated its glorious 13th birthday. This wasn't just any pet's birthday; it was a testament to the enduring charm and unique place this charismatic canine holds in the hearts of many, especially within the capital’s bustling political and journalistic circles.
The modest yet heartwarming celebration was hosted by none other than his proud human companion, senior BJP leader Vijay Goel, at his elegant residence.
The guest list was a testament to OG Star's widespread appeal, featuring a constellation of senior journalists, close friends, and family members, all gathered to shower love on the venerable dog. Amidst the joyous atmosphere, Goel reminisced about the Labrador's "active role" in the famed Delhi Confidential column, often becoming an unwitting catalyst for revealing snippets of political developments or personal insights into the lives of the capital's power players.
Goel delightedly shared anecdotes that highlighted OG Star's indelible mark.
He recalled how the column once revealed his own visit to a doctor for a shoulder injury, a detail inadvertently linked to his canine companion. OG Star's photogenic presence also made headlines, often seen posing with political stalwarts like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and veteran leader LK Advani, adding a touch of domestic warmth to official narratives.
And who could forget OG Star's infamous, "naughty" habit of expertly snatching food from unwary guests, a mischievous trait that only seemed to endear him further to his admirers?
Indeed, it's often remarked that OG Star boasts "more visitors than Goel himself," a testament to his magnetic personality.
Despite his advancing years, the spirited Labrador still revels in his long, invigorating walks, a ritual that keeps him vibrant and full of life. While Goel's home is now a sanctuary for several other beloved pets, he fondly admits that OG Star remains his "first love," the one who truly started it all.
The celebration wasn't just about fun; it carried a deeper message.
Goel, a staunch advocate for animal welfare, seized the opportunity to underscore the profound importance of showing love and compassion to all creatures. OG Star's story is a beautiful reminder that amidst the serious and often tense world of politics, there's always room for unconditional love, playful antics, and the heartwarming presence of a loyal four-legged friend who, for 13 years, has been Delhi Confidential's true, shining star.
