Ramki Natarajan
Ramki Natarajan, a 36-year-old sales representative from Tamil Nadu, has been living in Oman for the past 10 years while his family remains back home. He first heard about Big Ticket a year ago and has since been participating every month as part of a group of 20 friends.

Speaking about his journey, Ramki shared, “I have a group of friends I play cricket with, and one day we decided to form a group and take part together. It’s been about a year since we started, and we’ve been purchasing tickets every month, often making use of the promotional offer: ‘buy two, get two free.’”

Recalling the winning moment, he added, “I was in India when I received the call, so it was a big surprise at first, which quickly turned into happiness. I immediately informed my group, and everyone was thrilled.” Ramki confirmed that the prize will be split among the group and that they plan to continue participating together, encouraging others to take part as well.

Ansar Pookunju
Ansar Pookunju, a 47-year-old driver from Kerala, India, has been living in Dubai for the past 23 years. He recently celebrated a win in the second weekly draw along with a group of 20 friends, a team he has been playing with consistently for the past 15 years.
Reflecting on the moment, Ansar said, “I’m absolutely thrilled! After so many years of trying together, it feels amazing to finally see our efforts pay off.”

Although he does not have immediate plans for the prize, Ansar shared that he and his group will continue participating in Big Ticket draws. Encouraging others, he said, “Everyone should give it a try.”

Mohammed Ashour
Mohammed Ashour, a 41-year-old Palestinian working as a Guest Service Agent at Zayed Airport, has been participating in Big Ticket with his family for the past four years. He purchases tickets every month, enjoying the excitement of each draw with his loved ones.
Sharing his experience, Mohammed said, “At first, I thought the call was a promotion, and I even ignored it because I was asleep. When I picked up the second time, it was such an incredible surprise!”

Speaking about his plans, Mohammed shared that he intends to cash the prize and confirmed that he will continue participating in future draws.
