Million Dollar Island is in full swing, and already, we’ve said goodbye to many of the 100 ordinary Aussies the show began with. Those who remain are competing on a remote island for the chance to win a million dollars, which is the largest prize money ever offered on Australian television. In a game of strength, strategy and social alliances, friendships play a crucial role in the competition. For now, though, it’s time to meet one of the contestants who’s hoping to take home the grand prize.
Million Dollar Island Cast: Meet Jason Raja
Jason Raja is a 23-year-old from New South Wales, but he’s not your average supermarket duty manager. Known as one-half of “The Raja Twins,” Jason and his identical brother, Jayden, have a knack for entertaining their 1.9 million TikTok followers with their comedy skits. But of course, there’s more to Jason than just his social media success.
Born just one minute before Jayden, Jason is the older sibling. And yes, the twins used to pull identity swap pranks on people when they were kids. Wouldn’t you?! The real question here is whether they’d be able to do the same on Million Dollar Island. Regardless, these hijinks set the stage for the dynamic duo they would become as adults.
Of course, Jason and Jayden’s connection goes beyond mere pranks. They share an unbreakable bond that manifests in their ability to finish each other’s sentences effortlessly. Throughout their lives, the brothers have remained inseparable. In fact, they’ve never spent more than two days apart. It’s this remarkable unity that’s helped them achieve their massive joint success as TikTok stars.
When Jason’s not busy filming content or working out at the gym, you can find Jason enjoying the great outdoors. He cherishes his time surrounded by nature and often embarks on camping trips to reconnect with the world around him. These moments of tranquility provide a refreshing contrast to his vibrant online persona.
Jason’s Life Outside the Show
With the twins’ engaging content, Jason and Jayden have captivated a massive audience on TikTok. Right now, their account boasts an impressive following of 1.9 million loyal fans.
Their comedy skits have become a source of entertainment and laughter for viewers worldwide.

However, Jason’s life extends beyond the realm of social media stardom. Over on Instagram, he doesn’t post as frequently. However, one of his recent snaps features him with a woman named Emilia on a Hamilton Island getaway.

Jason’s Drive to Succeed on Million Dollar Island
The Raja twins are both deeply motivated to achieve great things in life, which they credit to their Sri Lankan/Indian heritage, and their deep-rooted appreciation for the sacrifices their parents made.
Jason and Jayden’s parents left everything behind when they moved to Australia in the hope of providing the twins a better future.
Now, their aspiration to succeed is fuelled by a desire to reciprocate their parents’ sacrifices, and ensure their well-being in the future.
With two chances to win the game, the Raja twins are real competitors on Million Dollar Island. But will they be successful? Only time will tell…
