A Bahrain-based entrepreneur has won Big Ticket's AED20 million grand prize on Wednesday, June 4.
Krishna Kumar, a 43-year-old businessman from Kerala, has been living in Bahrain for the past 23 years while his family remains back home. He has been participating in Big Ticket draws for the last seven years.
Reflecting on his journey, Krishna shared, “I started participating around the time Covid began, nearly seven years ago. Sometimes I would purchase tickets with a small group of friends, and other times I would take part on my own. This winning ticket was purchased independently.”
Recalling the winning moment, he added, “I actually missed the call at first because my phone was switched off. When I eventually found out that I had won, I was in complete shock. I was literally shaking and still find it hard to believe.” Krishna also noted that the winning ticket had been selected entirely at random.
Speaking about his plans, he said that he has not yet decided how he will use the prize and intends to discuss it with his family before making any decisions. Looking ahead, he shared that he may participate again in the future and encouraged others to remain persistent, adding, “I started taking part with the hope of creating better opportunities for myself and my family. My advice to others is to keep trying, stay positive, and never give up.”
