A life changing moment unfolded in Dubai as an Indian driver struck it big in the popular Abu Dhabi Big Ticket Lottery, winning a massive prize of 25 million dirhams, roughly equivalent to Rs 64.6 crore. What makes the story even more remarkable is that the winnings will be shared among a group of 27 individuals.

The winner, Abdul Rasheed, a 48 year old originally from Kerala, has been living in Dubai for nearly 17 years. He works as a driver for a local Emirati family and has quietly pursued his dream of winning the lottery for years. Along with his friends, he has been consistently purchasing tickets every month for the past six years, hoping that luck would eventually turn in their favor.

Their persistence finally paid off in the Series 265 draw held on May 3, when their ticket secured the jackpot. The ticket, bought on April 19, turned into a moment of celebration for the entire group, many of whom work as drivers and technicians in the Rashidiya area of Dubai.

Speaking about the win, Abdul Rasheed shared that the news came as an overwhelming surprise, especially as he was surrounded by friends when he found out. He also mentioned that this particular ticket was taken in his name ahead of his upcoming birthday on May 30, making the victory feel even more special.

Despite winning such a substantial amount, he has decided not to make any drastic changes to his routine. He clearly stated that he will continue working as a driver. The group plans to discuss together how best to use the prize money, ensuring that it benefits everyone involved.

The story stands as a reminder of patience, shared dreams, and the unexpected ways in which fortune can arrive, even after years of waiting.
