Commenting on his AED 1 million grand cash prize, Muhammad Chelayil said: "I had just started saving with Kunooz in January 2020 and can't believe I became a millionaire in such a short time."

Farid Al Mulla, Deputy Head of Consumer Banking and Wealth Management at Emirates Islamic, said: "On behalf of Emirates Islamic, I would like to extend our warmest congratulations to Muhammad Chelayil on receiving the AED 1 million grand cash prize and to Abdul Naser Arastana for winning the Tesla as well as all the rest of the winners for bagging the AED 50,000 cash prizes for the month of June.

As a financially responsible organisation, we always motivate UAE nationals and residents to adopt a healthy financial lifestyle and we will continue to encourage them to save more by rewarding them with grand prizes that will make a positive impact in their lives."
