## Survivor

### Madagascar

In '**Madagascar'**, Ajay was a member of the all-male Tana tribe.

Day 3, has a MAJOR meltdown and forms an alliance with Drizz Madok and Ted Nolan. Day 6, Drizz leaves alliance with Ajay and Ted. Going into Tribal Council, Ajay and Ted feel that Simon Trasvina is a challenge liability and end up in the majority, Simon is voted out 5-4. Day 7, both tribes were forced to attend Tribal Council, the winning tribe of Reward will then compete for Individual Immunity Challenge, Tana won and Ted would win the first Individual Immunity of the season. Ajay is impressing the tribe and now feels it's time to send Shani Tanoli home, two days and the two weakest are sent home as Shani is voted out 6-2.

Day 10, Ajay is impressing the tribe and he makes big moves, leaving his alliance with Ted and forming a new alliance with Drizz Madok (realigned) and Harrison Davison. Despite Harrison wanting to send Barth Wise out, he joins his alliance in voting for Peter Taplin, Peter is sent home in a close 4-3 vote. Day 11, in the tribe swap, Ajay and his alliance of Drizz Madok and Harrison Davison switch to Gidro, but they end up on the minority end of 4-3 against the women. Day 12, finds something in common with Drizz and when the boys get together, they feel Tessa Sylvester is the most negative of the women. However, the women stay strong and vote Drizz out 4-3.

Day 15, has a small fight with Karina Belova and leaves the alliance with Harrison Davison. The women with a 4-2 advantage, feel it's time they can lose one of their own, which is good for the guys, however the guys don't see eye-to-eye. Ajay targets Prairie Bingham, feeling she's the weakest member of the tribe. At Tribal Council, the vote returns 3-3 between Karina and Prairie. In the re-vote, Ajay and Kasia Jaworska flip to avoid a deadlock, sending Karina out of the game. Day 21, re-aligns with Harrison Davison. Prior to Tribal Council, Ajay is threatened by Ted Nolan and wants him gone, he speaks to Harrison and gets him on board. And then the trickle begins, Harrison gets Kasia on board, Kasia gets Tessa on board and Tessa gets Becca and Prairie. That's the majority and Ted is voted out prior to jury.

Day 24, has a major meltdown and Harrison ends his allegiance to Ajay (a reversal from Ajay's earlier decision). Unaligned, Ajay knows the targets are him and Becca Griffin, so he throws a vote towards Becca and hopes, Becca becomes the first Jury member in a 7-2 vote. Day 27, has a small fight with Daniel Arcila. Unaligned and his back against the wall, Ajay's only real option is to vote for Tessa Sylvester. The vote returns in a 4-4 tie between Ajay and Tessa. In the revote, Angela Pires changes her vote to avoid rocks and sends Ajay to the jury.

At the Final Tribal Council, Ajay votes for Kasia due to a closer bond. Barth Wise is crowned Sole Survivor in a 4-3 vote.

### All-Stars - Solomon Islands

In '**All-Stars - Solomon Islands'**, Ajay was a member of the **Villains** Tahaanuku tribe.

Day 2, Ajay feels that Carlos Johnson is a challenge liability. The tribe agrees on strength and Carlos is the first *All-Star* sent packing in a 6-2 vote. Day 5, has a major fight with Arlette Alcock, yet they form an alliance along with Frankie Jimenez. Day 10, has a minor disagreement with ally, Frankie.

Day 12, has a minor disagreement with Kat Heuser, Arlette leaves alliance with him and Frankie and he joins a 5-person alliance with Arlette, Clara Wesson, Kat and Neda Jaksic - with intentions to betray Arlette. At Tribal Council, the majority 5 decide to split the vote between Frankie and Mike Merryman in case Frankie has the Hidden Immunity Idol, however, both Ajay and Clara don't want to send Frankie home and they turn the tables on Arlette. HOWEVER, it was a *Mock Tribal Council* and Arlette is voted to Kagaba and she would take Clara with her. Day 14, leaves alliance with Frankie and would like to send him home, but the *Villains* stick together to vote out a former winner, Madeleine Allakariallak.

Day 17, is impressing the tribe. Day 19, is absorbed into the new Niupani tribe. Day 21, forms a 6-person alliance with Charlotte Murray, Frankie, Harrison Davison, Kat and Kyle Rodriguez. Day 23, has a minor disagreement with Kyle and Kat leaves the recently created 6-person alliance. Ajay feels that Mike is somewhat weak, but his ally (Kat) really doesn't like Kyle and his 5-person alliance wants to vote for Kat, for leaving. At Tribal Council, for the first time in history, Mike used the *Hidden Immunity Idol* on Kat and any votes for Kat will not count, Kat would receive 5 votes - Ajay, Kat, Mike and Neda Jaksic would all vote for Kyle, sending him home.

Day 27, leaves alliance with Charlotte, Frankie & Harrison. Ajay feels Charlotte is a challenge liability and convinces Kat Heuser & Neda to vote with him. However, Ajay's deception puts a target on his back and he's voted out 5-3.

#### Voting History

**^1**  In Ep 05, Kagaba and Tahaanuku were subjected to a joint and mock Tribal Council where the players they voted out (Madeleine and Arlette respectively) were merely switched to the other tribe.
