Mohammed Adil Khan, a 38-year-old Indian architect working in Dubai, has won the UAE’s mega prize draw, earning Rs 5.5 lakh per month for the next 25 years. Khan, originally from Azamgarh, Uttar Pradesh, participated in the Emirates Draw’s FAST5 game for the first time and became the fortunate winner. His initial shock turned into excitement upon receiving the congratulatory email and call from the organizers.
Being the sole breadwinner for his family of eight back home, Khan now feels secure about his future and considers it an early retirement. He plans to bring his entire family to the UAE and enroll his nephews in schools here. Khan picked his winning numbers randomly and believes that one must participate to have a chance at winning.
The FAST5 game offers participants the quickest route to victory with a single Dh25 ticket, and other participants can win substantial amounts in the raffle draw as well.
