UAE: Two drivers from Bangladesh, India win Dh150,000 each at Big Ticket Weekly e-Draw
Two expats, one from Bangladesh and another from India, have won a whopping Dh150,000 each in the third weekly Big Ticket e-draw of June. Naushadh Chathery, a 37-year-old house driver from Kerala has been living in Dubai for the past 15 years, while his family remains in his hometown. He first heard about Big Ticket 20 years ago and has been purchasing tickets ever since, sometimes on his own, and other times with a group of 10 friends. For this draw, he opted for the 'Buy 2, Get 4 Free' bundle with his friends, and it was one of the free tickets that led to their win. 'I am truly happy. Even though it's a small win, it has given me hope to keep trying. We plan to split the cash prize among our group, and I'll be saving my share. My aim now is to win the grand prize, so I'll continue buying tickets," he said. Mohammed Chowdhury, a 41-year-old house driver and small business owner from Bangladesh has been living in Abu Dhabi for the past 20 years. He first heard about Big Ticket 10–12 years ago through friends and has been participating with them every month since. For this draw, he purchased the 'Buy 2, Get 4 Free' ticket bundle with his group, and it was one of the free tickets that secured their win. 'I couldn't believe it, I'm so happy. It's an unexplainable feeling. Right now, the plan is to split the cash prize among my 10 friends, and then I'll decide what to do with my share. My eyes are now on the grand prize, so I'll definitely keep trying my luck. Big Ticket is really helping people's dreams come true, and I encourage my friends and everyone else to take part," Chowdhury said. This month, three weekly e-draws have already been conducted, and only one more remains before the grand finale. All eyes are on the Dh25 million grand prize, which will be awarded during the live draw on July 3. In the final weekly e-draw of June, three lucky participants will each win Dh150,000.
