Majumder often plays an alter ego called Raj Binder. Binder is an Indian reporter with an accent, who sweats profusely. Binder first appeared in a sketch from a comedy showcase with some former YTV costars called The Bobroom, but gained popularity in a sketch called "Backstage with Binder" for Just for Laughs where he interviews the comedians after their performance. Majumder continues to portray Binder on 22 Minutes.

Majumder caused some minor controversy when "Raj" posed in the MegaStars group picture during the Heritage Classic NHL outdoor ice-hockey game. Majumder made a guest appearance on two episodes of the television series 24, playing Hasan Numair, a terrorist nuclear technician working for Abu Fayad. He is currently playing Dr. Freddy Sahgal in the Fox TV series Unhitched, which premiered on March 2, 2008.
