Fate works in unpredictable ways and one cannot always be prepared for the startling pulses it might bring. Clearly, 32-year-old Anoop from Trivandrum wasn’t prepared for the shock waves he received when he realized he had won Kerala’s Onam Bumper lottery worth Rs 25 crore. Just seconds before knowing the results of the lottery, the man was all set to leave the country for Malaysia to work as a chef. Moreover, he had got a loan approved for his journey.
Prior to the overwhelming lottery win, Anoop, an auto driver, was planning his move to Malaysia where he was hoping to work as a chef. His loan of Rs 3 lakh was approved by the bank just a day before the lottery win announcement. Soon after his win on Sunday, Anoop told his bank that he no longer needed the loan and also corroborated that he had cancelled his trip to Malaysia.Further, he revealed that he had no expectations regarding the Onam Bumper. However, he bought the ticket as a part of his yearly ritual of 22 years. In the past, he had won small sums of money ranging from a few hundreds to Rs 5,000.
