About the event
Zarna Garg Outspoken Indian immigrant comedian Zarna Garg won't stop with the hit comedy specials and sold-out live shows. She’s now touring with her new show Million Dollar Excuses, about how to get out of anything. This October, Zarna returns to the Dubai Comedy Festival, taking the stage at Dubai Opera for a night of her signature sharp wit, fearless storytelling and laugh-out-loud observations on family, culture and modern life. Zarna’s inspiring memoir, This American Woman, about her treacherous climb from homeless Mumbai teen to internationally beloved stand-up comedian, is a New York Times bestseller with over 10,000 4- and 5-star reviews on Goodreads and Amazon, where it was named one of their Best of 2025 books. Zarna frequently opens for icons Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, and is currently building a new sitcom, Zarna, with Mindy Kaling and Kevin Hart. She also made her acting debut in indie superhit A Nice Indian Boy, a New York Times Critic’s Pick that called Zarna “a standout.” You can next see her on the Hulu series Not Suitable for Work and in the upcoming Amazon feature film Clashing Through the Snow. Her hugely popular Zarna Garg Family Podcast explores modern family life with her husband and kids.
