Following his win, Anilkumar revealed he had purchased 12 tickets and chose his winning numbers using an Easy Pick, deliberately selecting number 11 from the “Months set” to honour his mother’s birthday month.
New chapter of Lucky Day
The lucky jackpot winner appeared on a new promotional video in which the UAE Lottery announced that “a new chapter of Lucky Day is coming on the 29th of November.”
Urging UAE residents to take part in the final Dh100 million draw, Anilkumar said: “Your chance to a life-changing Saturday.”
The draw represents the last opportunity to compete for the country’s biggest-ever jackpot, with a new chapter of Lucky Day set to begin immediately afterwards.
Expanded gaming portfolio
Scott Burton, Commercial Gaming Director at The UAE Lottery, said on Thursday: “Our first year proved just how exciting and rewarding The UAE Lottery can be, with unforgettable wins and incredible stories from players across the UAE. The trust, enthusiasm, and remarkable moments we’ve witnessed define the experience we’re proud to offer today.”
Throughout its inaugural year, The UAE Lottery significantly expanded its offerings to provide participants with more choices than ever before. The platform now features over 20 gaming experiences, ranging from the flagship Lucky Day Draw to popular daily games such as Pick 3, Pick 4 and Colour Prediction.
A wide selection of scratch cards and E-instant games have proven particularly popular, with some entry points starting from just Dh1. Scratch cards alone have already awarded five top prizes of Dh1 million each, offering participants both excitement and transformative opportunities.
As the lottery kicks off its second year of operations, it said the new developments will build on the platform’s commitment to fairness, safety, and innovation while strengthening its role as a trusted source of entertainment across the UAE.
