An Indian national became the new millionaire during the Big Ticket’s draw series number 250 held in Abu Dhabi.

Arun Kumar Vatakke Koroth, who is based in the Indian city of Bengaluru, won the grand prize of Dh20 million with his ticket number 261031, bought on March 22.

When the show host Richard called Arun, he went quiet and hung up. The newest winner living in the Indian city appeared to be in disbelief after hearing the familiar sound associated with the draw.
