Zarna Garg On Key To WINNING INDIAN Hearts | What Do You Bring To The Table | Rajiv Satyal #zarnagarg #comedy #indian --- About Rajiv Satyal: Rajiv Satyal is a prominent comedian and host based in Los Angeles, best known for his clean, family-friendly humor that appeals to a wide range of audiences. He began his stand-up comedy career in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he was raised. His entry into comedy was anything but typical—his first performance took place in a locker room for tennis legend Pete Sampras, who was the world’s top-ranked player at the time. From that unconventional start, Rajiv has gone on to accomplish several notable feats, including performing for a crowd of 17,000 as the opening act for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He also created the viral video *I AM INDIAN*, which amassed over 100 million views, drew praise from Bollywood celebrities, and was featured at Modi’s events in Shanghai and Dubai. Rajiv made history by becoming the first comedian to deliver a full one-hour stand-up show in India. He has opened for Russell Peters more often than any other Indian comedian and shared the stage with comedy heavyweights such as Tim Allen, Sebastian Maniscalco, Jo Koy, Kevin Nealon, and Dave Chappelle—most notably introducing Chappelle's first show after his return from Africa. A standout moment in Rajiv’s career was closing a set at Gotham Comedy Club in New York immediately following his comedy hero, Jerry Seinfeld. --- About Zarna Garg: Zarna Garg entered the comedy scene in 2018 with an open mic performance in New York City, followed by her first official stand-up show at Carolines on Broadway in February 2019. Her debut romantic comedy screenplay, *Rearranged*, won Best Comedy Screenplay at the 2019 Austin Film Festival and was a semi-finalist in the 2019 Academy Nicholl Fellowships. In 2021, she won Kevin Hart’s Peacock comedy competition *Lyft Comics* and was honored as the Newcomer Winner at the Ladies of Laughter Awards. In 2022, she featured in Apple TV’s *Gutsy*, hosted by Hillary and Chelsea Clinton, spotlighting America’s boldest female comedians. Her story has been showcased on *Tamron Hall*, *Today*, and *This American Life*, where she shared how her daughter Zoya sparked her comedic journey. She later appeared again on *This American Life* alongside her husband, Shalabh. In 2023, *Variety* named her one of its “10 Comics to Watch.” Her first comedy special, *Zarna Garg: One in a Billion*, premiered on Prime Video on May 16, 2023, and was filmed at the Gramercy Theatre in New York in September 2022. Jason Zinoman of *The New York Times* described her as delivering “quick set-ups, rapid-fire punchlines,” with a presence fit for network television. Her next special, *Practical People Win*, is set to release on Hulu in July 2025. Zarna’s memoir, *This American Woman*, published on April 29, 2025, quickly became a New York Times bestseller and currently holds a 4.57 rating on Goodreads. She is also the creator and host of *The Zarna Garg Family Podcast*, available on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all major streaming platforms. --- Connect with Rajiv Satyal: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/funnyindian/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/RajivSatyal Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funnyindian/?hl=en X / Twitter - https://x.com/funnyindian Website - https://rajivsatyal.com/ Book Rajiv Satyal for Your Next Event - rajiv@funnyindian.com Video Editor - Satwinder Singh Rajiv Satyal, Zarna Garg, Zarna Garg Interview, Zarna Garg Podcast, Rajiv Satyal Comedy, Rajiv Satyal Comedian, Comedian Zarna Garg, Rajiv Satyal Indian American, Indian American Rajiv Satyal, Zarna Garg Video, Rajiv Satyal Standup, Rajiv Satyal Standup Comedy, Zarna Garg Standup Video, Rajiv Satyal Comedy, Zarna Garg Comedy Video, Comedy Video Zarna Garg, Zarna Garg on India, Zarna Garg Indian Gods, Rajiv Satyal India Comedy, Zarna Garg Comedy Video, Standup Comedy Rajiv Satyal, Zarna Garg Standup,
