Ajay says about the surname Suri Suri's are kashmir origin surname which are rear and have not been in kashmir like Sharma's,Mehta's and Malhotra's.Model turned actor Suri may be from sathu and may or may not be from kashmir origin as there are so many surnames from kashmir origin which you can also see in other communities besides kashmir like Bhat,Raina,Chaudhary.This i can say because my wife's name is Dr. Meenakshi Suri so no need to say any thing more.

Rakesh Kr Koul says about the surname Dhar surnames of kashmiri pandits were influenced by their place of living ,some typical attributes e.g., those who had a pit in their lawn were called Khoda those who had hump in their lawns were called taing those who used to take food in bowls were called kawal or kaul those who used to wear socks were called mozas those who lived at kilam ,kulgam were called kilam we newer tried to keep our surnames on the basis of our gotras like datatri, kashyup and nearly lost our ancestral touch. etc we newer thought to unite and have cohesive community feeling and sacrifice for our community men and women
