At the Series 252 Big Ticket Live draw, Lovesy Mole Achamma was named the lucky winner who took home the AED 20 million grand prize.

A registered nurse at a hospital in Abu Dhabi, the Indian national has been a resident of the UAE for the past 21 years and resides in the capital with her family. Her two children are currently in university in India. In fact, at the time of her win, Lovesy’s husband was back home enrolling their daughter, who is set to begin her studies this year.

Though her husband used to purchase Big Ticket cash prize tickets every month, Lovesy says she only buys her tickets at the in-store counter at Abu Dhabi International Airport when traveling. She will be splitting the prize money with her brother-in-law and plans to donate a portion of her winnings to charity. A separate sum, she says, will be spent on her children’s higher education.

Congratulations once again to our Big Ticket AED 20 million grand prize winner and to all the other winners from tonight’s show.

During the month of June, one lucky individual will be named the grand prize winner and walk away with AED 15 million during the live draw on 3rd July, while seven others will also take home guaranteed cash prizes. A second prize amount of AED 100,000 will be announced, as well as a third prize amount of AED 70,000, fourth prize of AED 60,000, fifth prize of AED 50,000, sixth prize of AED 30,000, seventh prize of AED 20,000 and eighth prize of AED 20,000.

The UAE has rejected reports claiming it is cancelling workers’ residency visas or providing financial facilities to Iran, calling the claims false and part of what it described as a wider media campaign.

Dr Anwar Mohammed Gargash, Diplomatic Adviser to the UAE President, said on Wednesday that the country remains focused on managing regional developments and preparing for the next phase rather than being distracted by misinformation.

In a post on X, Gargash said some platforms were circulating what he described as false information about the UAE while authorities continued to focus on developments on the ground.

He specifically dismissed rumours about the cancellation of workers’ residency visas and alleged financial support for Iran, saying the claims were incorrect.

Gargash said the UAE’s response to such reports would be through “work and achievements on the ground”, arguing that verifiable facts and tangible results were stronger than rumours.

His comments come amid heightened regional tensions and a wave of unverified claims circulating online. The UAE official urged attention to facts and concrete developments rather than what he described as media noise.
