Dr. C Pranav Kumar

Dr. Pranav is the Co Founder of Ananya CDC and the younger sibling of Varun, an exceptionally talented Hindustani musician on the Autism Spectrum. Growing up alongside Varun has given Pranav a deeply personal understanding of the realities, strengths, and challenges experienced by individuals with developmental differences and their families.

A passionate young medical professional with a keen interest in neurosurgery and neuroscience, Dr. Pranav brings a fresh, evidence informed medical perspective to the field of autism and developmental care. He is particularly driven by the need to bridge compassionate clinical care with contemporary scientific understanding, while ensuring that every individual is seen beyond a diagnosis.

Known for his calm presence, empathy, and “never say die” attitude, Pranav believes strongly in building a more inclusive, respectful, and enabling world for neurodivergent individuals. At Ananya, he contributes a new generation outlook that combines medical insight, innovation, interdisciplinary thinking, and a deep commitment to person centred care. His approach reflects both scientific curiosity and genuine compassion, with a strong focus on dignity, family support, and long term quality of life for individuals with autism and developmental differences.
