Zarna Garg: One in a Billion

Good movie!

source: Zarna Garg: One in a Billion

Thought it was fresh and funny. Different perspective coming from an immigrant parent --not just from an Indian kid born in the US. Although I'm somewhat familiar with Indian culture from friends and acquaintances, besides finding Zarna Garg humorous, she was authentic. I learned a substantial amount more about subtle aspects of Indian culture and family. And, it put some of my previous understanding in a new light. So glad I happened upon this Special on Amazon Prime. It is 67 minutes watching worth watching. I will watch it again. Rare for me to watch anything twice. Hoping any future new material will stay as fresh and authentic.

This is one of the worst comedy shows ever. It is extremely boring. The jokes have nothing new and you would not even realize that it's time to laugh, if not for the crowd in the show. It made me wonder who sponsored this person got the show considering there are so many other way better comedians out there and struggling to get noticed. The other thing is her accent. Apparently she is an 'immigrant'. She is confused about her accent. Most times her accent is Indian (which is fine) but at other times she tries real hard to pull off an American accent. Oh well, I watched only about 10 min, the last few min went in writing thus review. Stay clear, safe time.

I watched this comedy special after reading "good things" about it on the interwebz. But my mistake was that I believed the "good things" that I read. It's the same stereotypical hogwash that has been rehashed again and again and again in different specials from Asian comedians. The only difference is that the content has been tailored for an Indian audience. For an hour that I spent on watching this generic rehashed content, I was still optimistic and waited for "jokes" and I did laugh at a couple of them. The rest of the time I was looking at the screen with a straight face and sometimes with an expression that screamed loudly "Where funny?".

This is one of the most hilarious shows and l'm telling everyone l know to watch it!! I love her on instagram too! It had us howling with laughter and l wish everyone could see how funny this lady is! If you're an immigrant of any kind, you will know how much she gets it. And the mother in law jokes slay me. Also her jokes with her kids on instagram are hilariously funny so make sure you watch those too: It's also nice to watch a comedian whose jokes aren't always cheap, gross or crass...there's a certain wisdom to her brand of humor that just kills me. Finally a comedian who knows how to make an audience laugh for real.

She is hilarious! Looking forward to her next show. She grasps nice details in motherhood, being an immigrant, gender and cultural nuances. I used to follow her on her social media, so I was happy to see her on the screen. I hope she will put her other shows on screen or come up with other screen specials. She is super natural and sincere. Her authenticity makes the show more entertaining, interesting and engaging. Her jokes are smart and relatable to many moms, teenagers, families and immigrants from different cultures. Watching this with my daughter was a blast and we would crack up at every joke. Hope to see another one of these soon!

I've been following Zarna Garg on social media and enjoying her humor. It was great to share it with my husband as we watched her special. We loved every minute. I look forward to more specials and hopefully seeing her live someday. It's wonderful how her family participates and I enjoyed "officially" meeting them at the end of the show. They seem to be so proud of her. And they provide endless material! Maybe someday we will meet the mother in law? (It would be ok if we didn't.). I have a rather short attention span but spending an hour or so with Auntie Zarna is a delight. More, please. We need more.

A great comedy special. Watched it a few times. Very funny and relatable for all ages. Definitely worth a watch for a good laugh. Loved seeing her family at the end since she talks about them during her comedy. Need to meet her mother in law one day! Can't wait to see her live one day too! Hoping she adds more cities to her tour. So happy she got a comedy special of her own because she killed it! Can't wait till she gets another special soon too. Until then will catch her on Instagram and Tiktok. I send all her videos to my fiends and brother. Makes me laugh throughout my day too. Go Zarna!!!!!

Namaste... Very funny hunny ! Wonderful to hear cultural humor that was just plainly funny. It was especially pleasant to watch someone discuss things without have to be careful of the audience being too sensitive. It was like years ago when you could just TALK without having to watch what you say so as not to offend anyone. Most people in the US came from immigrant families, although most have forgotten this. It was such a wonderful gesture to introduce each family member. Just beautiful to share what means the most to someone in a happy way. This gal is a great watch and we're looking forward to her next Netflix special !
