The Jnanpith Award for 2009 has just been announced. It goes to the noted KannaDa poet, playwright and film director Dr Chandrashekhar Kambar. His name is pronounced as chun-the-ruh-shaker cum-bar or चन्द्रशेखर कम्बार. You want to be more accurate then you could add a schwa at the end of both the name and the surname. Hence चन्द्रशेखरअ कम्बारअ. In KannaDa it would read as ಚಂದ್ರಶೇಖರ ಕಂಬಾರ.
