The way Brij feel responsible towards Veer is the most beautiful thing I have scene through all these episodes so far. Bless his heart ❤
I like your comedy but cannot understand how if you moved countries at 16, you are still restricting your 18 year old son😮.
Zarna raised great kids. Raising kids in NYC isn't easy. Well done Zarna & God bless
A grade to Zoya for her love for farmers’ markets 💕
I have always given A to Zoya
Because she is the only one in the family who deserves it.
Zoya will rule the world some day
Haha so true 😂😂
I think so……love this family!
No she is too much woke
❤And I will hope my grandchildren follow her❤!!
@@l.z.2315Woke?!? Stay asleep 😴 then 😅! She is the future!!!
Veer is lucky to have such lovely siblings. Brij’s sense of responsibility towards Veer is ❤
Zoya, you have an incredible indomitable intellect and courageous spirit. You have my A plus.I really admire your perseverance.Your family is terrific.I really like them a lot.
Brij, I’m 32 and I felt truly like an “adult” maybe 5-6 years ago when I was completely financially independent (I declined my dad’s usual “gift” of cash when he visited and paid for everything myself without needing to think about savings etc. He was a little thrown but then super proud), helped my parents when they got sick and we all realized I could do everything for and take care of them. Same thing for my brother. They also really started treating me like an adult when they realized they could lean on me.
Zoya and Brij are amazing children/adults! You are so so lucky. As a mom with a 15 year old “rebel” yet adorable son I hear you in the unspoken bond. Both the kids get A+ for their maturity and responsibility as young adults!
They are wonderful and VERY bright thanks to their parents. Beautiful family❤️. From France
Brij stole my heart when he brought the point that his brother is his only responsibility right now...
what is the timestamp when he said that
@@joyaxe2000At 20:20
Brij made an excellent point about how differently Indian parents look at a daughter vs a son. It comes from a genuine love and concern and being protective, but there is a fine line where it can be smothering. I’m the oldest and only daughter of my parents and they were much more chill about my brother’s teenage and adulthood in India than mine.
Zarna, youre right. 18 and 21 are just numbers. A person's frontal lobe is not fully developed until you're 25. You're looking out from them, until they've proven themselves. Being an adult, comes from life experience. Brij is sensible, saying he doesn't feel like an adult yet. He knows he needs to be working and earning his own money. Shalabh, for all his education is still very backwards in his thinking-already talking marriage for Zoya. Glad she shut him down.
It was a joke. I don’t think so das is backward. He is making sarcastic typical Indian statements. I don’t think IIT guy would expect his Stanford daughter to just get married and not have career.
I read 30
Congratulations Brij On Your Acceptance into Cornell University 🎉
I love the way Shalabh thinks any man who ends up with Zoya is signing up for a lot of stress. That’s hysterical. And Zoya takes it all in stride. And Brij got into Cornell!! Fantastic!!
Brij definitely deserves the A grade as he mentioned that he as an adult at this stage feels responsible towards his younger brother and that's a great point. 💯
Zarna's words hit each Indian students like each and every household has a kid struggling to become doctor
No one's better then Zoya in the house
Love this family. Everyone so open minded to speak truth about themselves.
I cannot believe Zarna is behaving like an old school India..it's actually unbelievable..I sometimes wonder if Zarna is putting up a show as being traditional minded ..it seems unreal that she can be the person she is trying to portray in the podcasts..
I was wondering the same thing. She is almost insufferable
Many congratulations Brij!!!! So happy to see you kids doing well for yourself!!
And Zarna! We love you!!!❤
Zoya, you are going to change the world someday! All the best!
Zoya ..u have all my love and respect..girls like you will make the world a better place.❤
Also,Brij is such a sweetheart for caring about his little bro the way he does 😊
Congratulations on Cornell Brij… excellent accomplishment 🙌🏻
Veer is not an adult.. But you should have still had him in the episode.. He is our favorite ❤
Love all of them!
Need to know pass words if some thing would happen!
I can relate to Zoya describing Farmers market. Its really soothing and you really feel good.
That is wonderful, Zoya is reading so much!!👏👏👏
She is very argumentative but also makes a point!
Zoya - I feel you girl…am the older child and a girl with a younger brother…exactly same dynamics at home sprinkled with lots of love …. A for Zoya for standing up …
Why does brij thinks that indian girls can't stand up for themselves and make money. He really needs to visit India and see for himself. The west has created so many misconceptions about India. We all have the right to have our own preference but his statement over why he doesn't want an indian girl is just beyond my understanding.
Rooting for series with the Garg family! Keeping up with the Gargs sounds fab!
Omg!!!…I just love this family…I am going with the A grade for Brij, too!!!
Dear Zarna, you are just too good. Like how you said you will see into majority decision of the kids or rather family. It’s not easy dealing with young adults. It is so different in India, I get you girl ❤
India and indian girls are way way way different from what is being portrayed.. feels like ppl are stuck in what they saw when they left India in 2000s.. there are numerous girls and boys in india, studying away from home , working in different cities, working in very good jobs, playing football and tennis, making their own money, travelling solo or with friends, starting companies and more, being independent and leading a great life...
I agree these parents are laid back 😅
So trueee
A+ Brij, everything he says is a solid, respectable, honorable man in the works (like Shalabh.) The world needs this. Beautiful family, beautiful values...your intelligence, humor and love (including the bickering!) are wonderful, thank you. ❤
Aunt Zoya is like my Bua, who always poke my father with respect to each act of mine😂😂😂😂😂
I love how they show a chaos in the family but end of the day they are extremely close to each other and great family .
This is only a show and they are all going to do amazing.
I like Brij! He’s so handsome and smart! He knows what he’s doing and he
Has his own plans for his life. Keep it up Brij! Cornell University is super hard to get in. Congratulations! 🎉
Zoya & Brij gets a A grade
Respectfully brij needs a haircut asap
Omg, when you mentioned that you are writing a book, Zarna, I got so happy!! I'm an avid reader, and I can't wait to read your book!! Also, Zoya, I love that you enjoy reading books!! I followed you on goodreads! I'm a former neuroscientist and now entrepreneur, I was a researcher at Stanford investigating the brain basis of emotion regulation. I'm mentioning this because actually reading books is so good for the brain! There is a lot of research to support this! Also, I'm LOVING your show so much!! Thank you for creating and sharing this with us
I love this family..I like how the kids show a different view point from the parents and I can relate as an Indian immigrant family with similar age kids.The kids are very sportive
I just love your guys podcast and how guys talk about real life things and having valid and strong opinions of every individual members in your family.
the only thing missing in zarna being indian mom is the sound while sipping coffee!😂
Love it! I love this mom. I'm Iranian so for me it's easy to relate to this type of parenting. 😂
The mother and her attitude is deeply disturbing. It is this kind of upbringing of boys that is leading to more and more dissatisfied couples and high divorce rates because men are not able to be men because moms are still babying them. The men are not able to provide and protect their women because their mothers never taught them to be independent, take responsibility and own their decisions. It's a shame to see this happening to Indian boys. I feel sad for the 3 kids.
Parents... you did great job...your kids are awesome now step back and let them show you what they learn from you...the only way to learn is by making mistakes but they have you behind to help them if they needed.Those two kids are smart and mama you must seat back and let them figure out who they want to be...Love all of you ❤
I have to listen while driving home so my family don't think there is something wrong when I laugh so much till I am crying - as I am not Indian I can't always tell how much of Zarna's comments are tongue in cheek. This is the most naturally funny and poignant thing around. A family of characters and so intelligent!!!
I am not sure if this video is scripted or real. As a south asian 30 year old immigrant I find it totally unbelievable. I mean I thought my parents, 60 year old brown couple living in south asia were controlling until, I found this. And yes Zoya I go to farmers market too, Zarna has never been to an Asian farmers market otherwise her mind would change by seeing all the veggies that she saw in India growing up at the farmers market! On top of all I find the dad's view on women very regressive no wonder you liked the movie animal 😂. I feel like Zoya is often discriminated by her dad for being a woman. Also it is very common for Brij to think Indian girls from India would be very traditional and not have ambitions when he is growing up with very traditional parents. Hey Brij, any girl you meet in your college that grew up in India could be as ambitious as any girl that grew up in USA. Not all women born in India dreams to be a housewife. Welcome Zarna, who knows Brij might look at Indian women now. 😂
💯
The sons hair is just noooo 😂but congrats on getting into college
Zarna needs to be the adult first. She is clinging on to her children who clearly have expressed the desire to be free of her controlling nature. You have given wings to your children Zarna. Let them fly now. And I promise they will fly back to you. These are good children with good values. They have to make their own mistakes and learn from them. I feel sorry for all 3 children.
This is wonderful seeing the Garg family style of parenting with lots of love. ♥️ Look at their success rate, Zoya studying at Stanford and Brij accepted by Cornell. Congratulations Garg Family!! ✨🥳✨
Brij..your notion of how Indian girls from India are is so wrong!! India has progressed immensely from the time your parents migrated! Infact, you'd be surprised at how progressive, goal oriented and well read women from India are today!
The boys deserve the A++ for sticking to the truth 👏
This is my fav...so healthy conversation...so relatable... Sending love ❤
Zarna, I feel you need to let kids do what they enjoy, reading is amazing , farmers markets are awesome, we all learn better from our own mistakes , the more we control them, the more closed minded they will be. 😍😍😍
The famous dialogue by Shalab🤣🤣🤣🤣 Men can't be careless, women and children can😂😂😂😂 lololololololol
Two beautiful intelligent kids
I am an Indian girl from India living in the USA and I am as ambitious as anyone else. What is that generalization that an Indian girl is not ambitious?? That is utterly disrespectful towards an Indian girl or woman who grew up in India. Utterly disgraceful. It is a certain kind of racism and unfocused generalization. Brij needs to widen his horizons and get out of this mindset. Being a frog in a well won't help him. It is a typical 'Oh! We Americans are THE best' kind of mentality and really toxic. India is no longer a third-world country as is perceived by Americans. We have aspirations and ambitions - now, probably more than an average American. Grow up. And, R.E.A.D. Not just regular Fantasy and NY Post, but authentic geopolitical and geo-socioeconomic books as well.
INDIA HAS HIGHEST NUMBER OF WOMEN IN STEM, IT IS A FACT! JUST JUDGING WITHOUT HAVING A REALTIME HAND CHECK DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!!
I am a bit surprised by their opinions and their thoughts.. feels like they are stuck in 90s... Not everyone in India gets married at 22
Brij is going to be a great man/adult!!!
Zarna sometimes you have to step back and let the kids make their own decisions about what they want to do in life.Brij doesn't want to be a doctor. How can you force or demand he becomes a doctor.He will not be happy and you bully him.Medicine is extremely difficult when you have to work long hours all day then be on call all night then work the nexy day.Zarna talk to a doctor and desist from making your children unhappy.Don't try to live your life through them.
It is not too late for YOU to go back to school and study to become a doctor
Travel is amazing and opens their minds
It’s beautiful experience and making sweet memories along the way.
Zarna said "Zoya is on the verge of lying more and more about me" and Zoya went "oh"😅 - so funny.
And I like when Schlaab told Zoya "you're a girl so the rules are slightly different".
Congratulations on college Brij. Where's Veer?😮
Brij and Zoya get the A, but I want to give kudos to all of you for coming together as a family having these kind of discussions ❤😉
Uncle Ji is all about Zoya being a girl and Brij being a boy 😆 lol
Zarna, i 'm Vietnamese, we have same problems with my 4 kids. They want us to pay everything for them but we cannot "interfere " to their decisions.
A+ to Zoya for sure!
Congratulations Brig! 🖐🙌👏
Zoya needs to be the adult first. She is clinging on to her children who clearly have expressed the desire to be free of her controlling nature. You have given wings to your children Zoya. Let them fly now. And I promise they will fly back to you. These are good children with good values. They have to make their own mistakes and learn from them. I feel sorry for all 3 children.
U mean Zarna right ?
Zarna acts silly because she made her career as a sarcastic stand up comedian. It appears to me like she pretends to be unreasonable and childish and portrays the typical Indian mindset of controlling kids to get the conversations started.
@@supercrazydesi yes I don’t believe that she really like that in real life. Feel like it’s just a part of the act. She raised beautiful independent children..it wouldn’t have been possible with the mindset she’s portraying.
@@apoorvadasari5782 Yes. I meant Zarna. I went to edit or delete but it wouldn’t let me. So I corrected her name and made one more post above. Thank you for noticing.
Always amazing 🎉🎉Congratulations to all of you❤
Zoya and Brij are great and intelligent kids
And Brij responsibility for his baby brother is so incredible and ❤
Man, the Amount of patience and maturity Zoya has is incredible, sometimes I really wonder what it would have been like for her to hold her own despite of knowing that her own people not by choice but as victims of circumstances are holding it against her...
Zarna is getting the A from me today. Even though the law says 18 year olds are adults - they really aren't. :)
My A grade goes to Brij for being an excellent son, very well spoken and he will be a great benefit to this world one day, however I have to commend Zoya!!!!! She’s gentle yet so dynamic person that I connect with on so many levels, Zarna you may not agree with her right now, I think you will be proud of the adult she is one day!!!
I was in medical school throughout my 20s and now getting my MD.. I am engaged,29 and getting married this year to the love of my life I met in medical school. I am also an independent woman living alone in a different state away from home and handling my entire life by myself. All because my parents gave me all the freedom I needed in my earlier life. I am a self-made woman. I enjoyed, I partied in my earlier life in medical school too.. but did what and when required. Thank god I did not have overbearing parents like this..home always means my mom's food, and a whole lot of wholesomeness. I love how all of it has navigated my life, I have failed in life, got up and came back stronger than ever.. all the while knowing my parents are there for me whenever I need them..And yes.. I have never been happier in life as I am right now. ❤ 😇 Oh by the way.. Indian, grew up on Kolkata.
Zoya ❤The best!
i love garg family wish auntie zarna could also speak about being baniya heritage.( can check out being baniya by gaurav gupta) a very cute conservative money and business oriented attitude and forthright no nonsense culture of baniyas is lovable.zoya seems to be the smartest in the family. lov u all
I love you Zarna and your beautiful family ❤❤You and your husband are raising beautiful kids and you’ll only go higher and higher in life , you are an inspiration to many women in US 💗
omg this podcast is so entertaining to watch 😅
Zoya and Brij ...... You guyz are my fav. My A grade goes to both of you. ❤
Omg. I married a man straight from Chandigarh, both in older life. These cultural differences are too much. I was previously married and an independent adult at age 20. Made all my own decisions and choices. Experienced love and life. Glad my parents were American.
25:15 shalabh I also agree with this statement
But it is applicable for zoya, girls, everyone out there
Its not like boy or girl thing😐🙂
So Zoya lectures her parents about becoming independent from them as necessary process for becoming an adult but when it comes to paying for her expensive college tution she wants her parents to take care of that. Typical GenZ ..who do not operate in real world. Having integrity and walking the talk is also an important aspect of being an adult Zoya.
I wish Zarna would become less controlling but it's amazing that she lets them express themselves ❤
Congratulations Brij on getting into Cornell, Hope you find a solid GA position soon✊✊
Kids are adult for parents when they just do all there things themselves with the guidance of parents. Like I have taken advice of my parents every time I have to take decisions regarding my college, field of education or job. Once I got comfortable with my new things. My parents slowly step back. I was only 23, when I was living all alone by myself and handling my own money and grocery.
Mom is actually HYPNOTIZING Brij
When I became 18 yrs I thought there would be big change in my life. Nothing changed except I got voting rights in India. I spent 4 yrs of college living in college hostel, yet every wk end or vacation I camw back home. Its natural thing here since kids are close to parent. If not in hostel they are at home. But decision with my life, like what specialization to take in post graduation course, etc were taken after discussing with my parents. Its not thar they imposed their thoughts on me. Its more like if they agree I am taking right decision. That some comfort for me atleast. Now, I feel being adult is not being independent of your parents completely, its that one os matured enough to think what is right or wrong in his or her life & take decisions accordingly. In this process one can take advice from their parents too. However I dont know if this fits western concept since they think being adulr means move away from parents home & stay alone. But I know moving away & staying alone from parents may not necessarily make one independent of parents.
Zoya is amazing!!!!❤
Zoya and Brij both get an A. Congrats, Brij, on getting into Cornell.
Zarna opposed her father in India at the age of 16 and left home never took her dad's advice left the country came to USA, some 30 years ago, at a time when Indian girls obeyed their dads. Now she wants all control over her adult children.
Double standard. I am surprised the children don't bring this up.
Zarna all the way to A!!! No matter who is with you, you will overshadow them all 🎉
Where is Veer? Love this podcast setting though I would love to see Zarna facing us!
Brij and Zoya - you are still young and shouldn’t feel guilty for spending your parents money on sensible things including a bit of partying. I am an Indian mom too 😀. I tell my own son - it’s family money. We don’t do yours and ours. ❤
You would receive "adulting" lessons if the option of 3-4 years Military or Peace Corps service were suggested w/ some reduction of school tuition or home ownership as an incentive. The GI Bill is an example.
Such sensible kids! 🧿
Be blessed to have these parents
I give my A to brij...he is open minded and also learning to ne adult.... And taking care of his brother is his responsibility is soo much true & many more points make him A+
Brij does not know that Indian women in India are becoming more American than Americans😂
LOL 😂
A grade for me goes to Zoya, just the way she’s able to articulate her frustrations and truth and be able to without being disrespectful. I wanna learn from her
“Why would you be independent of your mom?” 😂😂😂 I’m glad he has an older sister to balance things out 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
A will be always to Zarna to make podcast like this that all indian family can relate. Down the line we all know that you are great mother.
i always enjoy ur podcast and missed younger brother Veer today.
I give A grade to myself for listening the podcast patiently.
