In the UAE, best friends shared a multi-million lottery win

In the United Arab Emirates, friends won the US $ 4 million lottery for two.

For the two best friends from Dubai, the New Year began with a huge win. Sarat Purushotaman and Prasant Surendran from India each received 7.5 million dirhams each ($ 2 million) in the largest Big Ticket lottery ever.

The ticket that brought them victory was selected in the main draw, which took place on Thursday morning at the Abu Dhabi International Airport.

Sarat and Prasanta have been friends for 10 years. They not only work in the same company, but also live in the same room in Dubai. The ticket was bought in the name of one of the friends, but they will split the win in half.

To celebrate the victory, they both fly to their homeland, to Kerala. Here Prasanta is waiting for a newborn daughter. The daughters of Sarat are already six months old.

Friends are not yet ready to answer the question about future plans.

“First we want to stay with our families. Perhaps the immediate plan is to invite them here,” Sarat said.
