Zarna Garg is set to get her own show at CBS. Titled Zarna, the multi-camera comedy will trace Garg’s journey from immigrating to the United States, completing her education, working for 16 years as a stay-at-home mom before pursuing a career in comedy. The show is being produced by Darlene Hunt, Mindy Kaling’s Kaling International, Kevin Hartโ€˜s Hartbeat and Warner Bros. Television.

Gargโ€”who first rose to fame on TikTok and Instagram with her content about immigrant mothers in Americaโ€”became a notable figure in the standup scene after winning the comedy reality show Lyft Comics produced by Kevin Hart in 2021. The show featured up-and-coming comedians telling jokes while disguised as Lyft drivers.

The comedian released her debut standup special One In A Billion last year on Amazon Prime Video. She also toured with comedy legends Tina Fey and Amy Poehler on their Restless Leg tour. Garg was also part of Apple TVโ€™s Gutsy starring Hillary and Chelsea Clinton. Gargโ€™s other accolades include the 2021 Ladies of Laughter Award and a nod from the Austin Film Festival for her screenplay Rearranged with the Best Comedy Prize.
