Looking ahead, December’s Big Ticket draw promises even greater rewards, with a Dh25 million grand prize
In a stroke of luck, Prince Kolassery Sebastian, an Indian expatriate residing in Sharjah, won Dh20 million in the latest Big Ticket Abu Dhabi draw, gulfnews.com reported.
The life-changing prize was announced during a live event on Sunday, leaving Sebastian, originally from Kerala, India, in disbelief. He held the winning ticket number 197281, which he purchased with a group of ten colleagues on October 4.
“I still can’t believe it,” shared Sebastian when he received the news over a phone call from the show’s presenters. A friend had informed him of his win, as he was not watching the live event. Despite the confirmation, he initially felt it was too surreal to be true.

With these thrilling incentives, anticipation for the next Big Ticket draw is already building among hopeful participants
Having lived in the UAE for eight years, Sebastian expressed his amazement but admitted he hadn’t yet decided how to spend the windfall, noting, “I still have to think about it.”
In an interesting turn, last month’s winner, Abul Monsur, picked Sebastian’s ticket during Sunday’s draw. Adding to the excitement, the Big Ticket team revealed that UAE national Nasser Al Suwaidi won the Dream Car Series prize, taking home a brand-new Range Rover Velar.
