Jasmine briefly calls Rajah off when she recognizes Ali, but the princess and tiger soon dismiss the notion. When Ali approaches Jasmine on the balcony, Rajah immediately chases him to the edge whilst growling. Jasmine and Rajah take an immediate disliking to the prince because of his flashy appearance and nature. The next day, 'Prince Ali' (Aladdin in a magical disguise) visits Agrabah as a suitor for Jasmine.

Once Jasmine returns, Rajah comforts the princess as she mourns the supposed death of Aladdin, a boy she met at the marketplace. The tiger then helps her scale the palace walls, becoming incredibly depressed afterward. Jasmine sadly explains she can't have her life be dictated for her anymore and hugs Rajah goodbye. Later one night, Rajah catches Jasmine trying to escape the palace and attempts to stop her. After an argument with Jasmine, the Sultan angrily mutters, 'Allah forbid you should have any daughters!' Rajah becomes confused at this, believing the Sultan was referring to him. Jasmine tries to defend Rajah by claiming was just 'playing' with the prince. When the Sultan confronts Jasmine in the palace gardens, he finds Rajah playing with the torn fabric and realizes what happened. When the snobby Prince Achmed tried to court Jasmine, Rajah attacked him and ended up ripping off a piece of Achmed's pants, successfully getting him to leave Agrabah. Rajah is introduced with Princess Jasmine. However, he is shown to be very intelligent for a tiger and a good judge of character Rajah is friendly and docile with Jasmine, Dalia, and Aladdin, whereas he often snarled at Jafar and Prince Anders and outright attacked Iago at several points in the movie. In the 2019 remake, Rajah's personality is slightly less nuanced.

Even when Iago fully redeemed himself, Rajah, though warmed up to the parrot, still has somewhat of a strained relationship with Iago he often threatens to eat the cowardly parrot if Iago doesn't cooperate in doing the heroes' requests. When recognizing the parrot, Rajah tried to eat the bird before Aladdin stopped him. Rajah had an even harder time getting comfortable around Iago, the ex-bird of Jafar. Mostly, Rajah seems to embody the typical personality of a dog or a cat.Īt first, Rajah wasn't too fond of Aladdin, and often growled at him, but by the end of their adventure, he has grown more comfortable around the prince. He appears to represent Jasmine's overall character in this sense as she too can be either fierce or loving, depending on with whom she is interacting. However, when with Jasmine, Rajah is docile and gentle. Rajah is mostly known for being rather aggressive and intolerable, as he takes a disliking to anyone who annoys Jasmine, even slightly-including narcissistic suitors like Prince Achmed, ' Prince Ali', and even the Sultan. As such, he cares deeply for the princess, and repeatedly supports her throughout the course of the franchise, not once showing a hint of disloyalty or true aggression towards her (though he was briefly offended when Jasmine mentioned a lack of friends absentmindedly forgetting Rajah for a brief moment). Rajah is Jasmine's best friend and fierce protector.

Once the Sultan discovers Rajah, he expresses the need to have the latter return to the circus, though his mind is eventually changed and he manages to purchase Rajah from his original owner.

As a child, Jasmine's mother told the princess stories of a star named 'Rajah', prompting Jasmine to name her new cub in honor of those stories. He was discovered by a then-young Princess Jasmine, who assumed the cub was a gift from her deceased mother. Rajah was originally a circus tiger as a cub, who found his way into the Sultan's palace after escaping the touring circus group during a visit to Agrabah.
