Known for her eloquent grace and uncompromising precision, Pranamya’s delightful style is the result of a perpetual love for the ancient art form. She is the student of her mother, guru Smt. Srilatha Suri, Padma Shree Dr. Sobha Naidu and Sri Jai Kishore Mosalikanti. She has performed at some of the most prestigious platforms. Her incredible devotion to the art won the hearts of many stalwarts. Pranamya is also a doctor and completed a surgical year at Harbor-UCLA. With an interest in connecting medicine with dance, she completed her medical residency in PM&R at the University of California, Irvine. She recently completed her fellowship in Interventional spine at the prestigious Johns Hopkins Medical Center. She was also Founder and President of Echoes of India, a non-profit organization. She combined her love for dance and service by raising funds through dance. She installed 16 water purification plants in India and established the first medical clinic in Kuchipudi Village, as well as in Nalgonda. The water plants provide clean drinking water to more than 70,000 people and the medical clinics serve more than 50 patients per day. 

 “Ms. Suri, ravishingly dressed in cream and gold, at once made the rapid footwork and gestures of Kuchipudi absorbing and, in statuesque positions, she has piercing beauty of line, too. Overall, she combines vitality with sweetness; the fluency with which she strings her sharply pattering steps into prolonged phrases is a particular part of her spell” —The New York Times
