Bihar barber wins IPL 2021 Dream11 jackpot to become millionaire

A barber from Bihar's Madhubani area earned a millionaire overnight after making a perfect selection for his fantasy squad for the Indian Premier League match between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders. Dream11, a prominent sports fantasy-based platform, has changed many people's life. Ashok Kumar, a commoner from Bihar, had a lucky day on September 26.

He claimed that he had been a dedicated fantasy gamer for many years, trying his luck by creating Dream Teams on the fantasy platform, but the $1 million jackpot has eluded him. On Sunday, however, luck took a different turn as every one of Kumar's picks turned out to be accurate, resulting in him winning the main prize of Rs. 50 in an Rs. 50 contest.

Despite winning the lottery, Kumar remains grounded, stating that he has no plans to leave his profession and that he "loves his job." When asked how he planned to spend and distribute the large sum of money he had won, he replied that he would pay off all of his bills and construct a haven for his family.
