Kerala-based expat and 20 friends rejoice after March’s second weekly e-draw win.
Ansar Pookunju, a 47-year-old Kerala expatriate who has lived in the UAE for 23 years, finally struck gold in the latest Big Ticket weekly e-draw, celebrating alongside his group of 20 friends with whom he has been trying his luck for 15 years.
That long-standing dedication culminated in triumph as Pookunju was declared one of the winners, receiving a 200-gram, 24-karat gold bar.
“I’m absolutely thrilled! After so many years of trying together, it feels amazing to finally see our efforts pay off,” he said.
He also mentioned that he has no immediate plans for how to use the prize.
Ongoing enthusiasm
Pookunju confirmed that he and his friends plan to continue taking part in future draws.
“Everyone should give it a try,” he encouraged.
He was one of four winners in Big Ticket’s second weekly e-draw for March, and for Pookunju and his friends, the victory serves as a reminder that persistence, coupled with a little luck, can eventually pay off.
