Nur Miah Shamshu Miah, a Bangladeshi expat from Al Ain, won Dh15 million in the latest Big Ticket Abu Dhabi raffle draw held on Tuesday, September 3.
Miah got lucky with ticket number 201918, which he purchased at the Al Ain Airport. The moment he was announced as the winner of the raffle draw, he received a phone call from hosts Richard and Bouchra confirming the life-changing news. Overwhelmed with excitement, the Al Ain resident could hardly find the words to express his joy.
“I am very happy about my win. Two of my friends are already celebrating with me now,” said Miah, who has been living in the garden city for the past 18 years.

“I will share this prize with my friends, and the first thing I will do is renew my visa. Then, I will think about what to do with my winnings. My advice to everyone is to believe in God and be patient; one day, you will win," added the 40-year-old father of three.
In addition to Miah's big win, 10 participants also won Dh100,000 each during Tuesday's live draw.
Tushar Deshkar, the grand prize winner for August, also made a special appearance at today's raffle draw. Exactly one month after his big win, Deshkar had the honour of picking today's winner, a poetic gesture that added a special touch to Miah's Dh15-million win.
