Zarna Garg has emerged as a comedic spearhead with her unique blend of humour, wit, and fearless social commentary. An Indian immigrant mom based in New York City, Zarna has drawn audiences into a world where laughter and thought-provoking conversation coexist. Her first comedy special, One in a Billion, premiered on Amazon Prime; and her second special, Practical People Win tour, is currently streaming on Hulu's Hilarious Comedy Series after a sold out tour.
Zarna's debut book, This American Woman, made the New York Times Best Seller list, further solidifying her voice as both hilarious and culturally resonant. Drawing audiences into a world where laughter and thought-provoking conversation coexist, Zarna has garnered critical acclaim. She hosts the popular podcast The Zarna Garg Family Show alongside her entire family, diving into modern life's big issues - from family dynamics to contemporary social challenges.
She is a regular at the world-famous Comedy Cellar in New York City and tours internationally. Zarna serves as the opening act for comedy icons Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's Restless Leg Tour. She’s appeared at top tier festivals including the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in both 2023 and 2024, where The Montreal Gazette said: “Garg has been bringing down the house at Club Soda in the Just for Culture series and could well loom as the breakout star of this year’s Just for Laughs festival.” She also performed at the 2024 Netflix Is a Joke Comedy Festival.
Her accolades include winning Kevin Hart’s Lyft Comics competition, the 2021 Ladies of Laughter Award, and earning the Top Comedy Feature award at the 2019 Austin Film Festival for her debut screenplay Rearranged, which also became a Nicholl Fellowships semi-finalist, beating out over 11,000 scripts. Zarna has created over 400 comedic home videos with her family and built a devoted social media following of 2M+ fans with 1B+ views. A proud immigrant woman building her American dream from traditional Indian values, Zarna continues to take audiences along for a wildly funny, unfiltered, and inspiring ride.
