Indian man wins $1 million

He is not the only Indian who became a lucky winner this week. Abdul Rahman K, a 37-year-old from Kerala, won the grand prize of $1 million in the Millennium Millionaire Series 516 draw on Wednesday.

The father of three who works as a sales assistant for a retail company in Sharjah shared the cost of the ticket with his nine friends. All 10 of them have been participating in the draw since 2010, alternating the name on the ticket for each series.

The prize comes at the perfect time, he said. “Two of my daughters are celebrating their birthdays this month, and now we have even more reason to celebrate…It’s amazing!”

Two Indians win superbikes

According to Khaleej Times, it was a lucky week for two more Indians. While Shafeekh Nasarudeen, a 41-year-old Indian man, based in Umm Al Quwain, won a BMW F 900 GS Adventure motorbike, Olavo Fernandes, who lives in Abu Dhabi, won a Ducati Panigale V2 (Red) motorbike.

This was the second time the 61-year-old Indian expat has won a motorbike in the Dubai Duty Free draw. In September, Olavo was the winner of an Aprilia RSV4 1100 motorbike.
