Dubai: An HR professional from Pakistan, Zulqarnain Malik, has emerged as the first winner of Big Ticket’s September weekly e-draw after purchasing just six tickets. The 40-year-old, who now resides in the UAE with his family, expressed surprise and delight upon discovering his winning ticket. "I got goosebumps when I found out.
I was genuinely so happy, it was such an exciting experience, especially because I never expected to win," Malik shared. Malik’s winning ticket marks only his sixth attempt to win with Big Ticket. He first encountered the lottery while traveling and decided to give it a try. After a few unsuccessful entries, he stopped playing before rediscovering the draw online last year.
Malik’s success was achieved randomly, as he does not rely on any specific numbers or patterns when selecting his ticket. The Dh25,000 prize will go towards making his wife and children happy. With his win, Malik is motivated to continue playing and is already planning to purchase his next ticket, hoping to aim for the draw’s grand prize of Dh20 million, scheduled to be awarded on October 3.
