Commonly mispronounced words 41 - Ambati Rayudu

This man is playing the ODI today and I find that his name has been mispronounced for quite a long time. Everyone from the commentators to the news anchors to his team owner pronounces it as um-bah-tea (with a soft t). The correct pronunciation is um-but-ee rah-you-do. In Hindi this would read as अम्बटि रायुडु. His full name is um-but-ee the-roue-putty (soft t) rah-you-do. अम्बटि तिरुपति  रायुडु
