Commenting on his winning, Mr Aranha said: 'I will save a portion for my daughter’s education who is currently in the United States studying business administration.'

'This is an amazing win and I think everybody should give it a chance, expect the unexpected.'

Mr. Aranha is the 151st Indian national to have won US$1 million since its inception in 1999.
