The man who designed the tricolour (Do you know how to pronounce tricolour correctly?) or the tirangaa, is often remembered around Independence Day. And his name gets mauled.
His name is Pingali Venkayya. It is pronounced as pin-gully when-kigher (rhyme with higher).
(Using the pronunciation key) pingaLi venkaiyya
(Using Devanagaari) पिंगळि वेंकय्यअ
