Maya Mody and Rohan Mody are a team of Siblings on The Amazing Race 36.

Maya and Rohan came onto the race fully confident and prepared for anything the race had to offer. However, they quickly fell to the back of the pack after getting lost and having to spend extra time making a U-turn within a narrow road. Despite cruising through the Detour and Roadblock, they were unable to catch up to Amber & Vinny and Chris & Mary, who finished moments before they arrived at the Pit Stop, eliminating them in 13th place.
