In the 88th Mahzooz weekly draw in Dubai, three Indian expatriates living in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) took home the top prize of 100,000 Dirham (Rs 21,66,249).
During the live weekly drawing on Saturday, August 6, Binu Gopalakrishnan, Sathish Kumar Palli, and Mohamed Taher Nakash were the winners. They matched five of the six winning numbers.
Since learning about Mahzooz from his coworkers, 46-year-old Binu Gopalakrishnan, who has lived in the UAE for the past 16 years, has been participating in the weekly draw once or twice a month.
"I have no idea how to describe how grateful I am for this surprise award. I have never before in my life won anything, save for this. I'd want to thank my coworkers for introducing me to Mahzooz," Binu told Khaleej Times.
Sathish Kumar Palli, 31, a private company's administrative assistant who has lived in the UAE for 11 years, was startled when his supervisor informed him that he had won. He has not yet made a decision about what to do with his winnings since he is still trying to come to terms with his victory.
Ewings, the company that runs Mahzooz, said that two winners from India and the Philippines split the top prize of 10 million Dirhams (Rs 21,66,05,362) evenly after selecting five of the five winning numbers (7-9-17-19-21). Following the conclusion of the required documentation and the verification procedure, details will soon be made public, according to a statement released by Ewings on Thursday.
On Saturday, August 13 at 9 p.m. UAE time, the next draw for 10 million Dirhams (Rs 21,66,05,362) will be televised live (10:30 pm IST). By logging onto the app or website, one may take part in both the Mahzooz mega draw and the raffle draw.
