The eleventh prime minister of India has probably the most difficult full name - from a pronunciation perspective. Hence most people go for the shortened name (with initials). But if you wish to pronounce the name fully, here is how you would do it
her-a-thun (rhymes with bun)-a-hull-lee though-day-gow-duh they-whey-gow-duh
The consonant sound in 'thun' is the same as that in 'then', though it is closer to the French 'd'. You can shorten the vowel sound in 'though' to get it absolutely right.
In Hindi it would read as हरअदनअहळ्ळि दोड्डेगौडअ देवेगौडअ
In Kannada it would read as ಹರದನಹಳ್ಳಿ ದೊಡ್ಡೇಗೌಡ ದೇವೇಗೌಡ
