On 9th May, 2019, the Community lost our much cherished and celebrated Dentist, Dr. Arnavaz Havewala, as the result of a tragic accident that took place on April 28, 2019. Dr. Havewala, aged 63, and her daughter, Hera, 24, were involved in a terrible accident in the lift of the Bhau Daji Lad Museum, located in the Byculla zoo. They were seriously injured and immediately rushed to the Masina Hospital (Byculla), where Dr. Havewala was admitted with multiple fractures and Hera suffered a fracture in the leg. Unfortunately, on Thursday (9th May), Dr. Havewala succumbed to a cardiac arrest, allegedly born out of complications due to the injury.
