Overview
Get ready for a comedy experience unlike any other when Zarna Garg brings Million Dollar Excuses to NJ this summer. Zarna Garg does so much more than tell jokes. She dismantles stereotypes, challenges expectations and leaves audiences gasping for air between laughs. This is a comedy that’s bold, brilliant and brutally honest, delivered by one of the fastest-rising stars in stand-up.
Named one of Variety’s “10 Comics to Watch,” Zarna has electrified stages from New York’s legendary Comedy Cellar to sold-out theaters across the U.S., Europe, India and Dubai. With two hit specials — One in a Billion (Amazon Prime) and Practical People Win (Hulu) — and a New York Times bestselling book, she’s proven that her voice resonates far beyond the stage.
What makes Zarna’s live shows unmissable is the energy. The moment she steps onstage, you’re pulled into her world — a hilarious collision of immigrant experience, motherhood, marriage and modern American life. She tackles everything from arranged marriages to passive-aggressive family dinners with wit so sharp it could cut glass. The New York Times praised her “presence that powers network sitcoms,” and audiences agree, hence why her shows sell out fast.
Whether you’ve discovered her through viral TikToks (100M+ views), caught her on The Tonight Show or heard her open for Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, seeing Zarna live is something else entirely. It’s raw. It’s real. It’s the kind of laughter that stays with you long after you leave the theater.
