Telugu has its own phonetics and phrasing that generic models rarely reproduce. The right model makes the difference between authentic and awkward.

Telugu script carries everything the model needs
Unlike Tamil, Telugu script does have distinct letters for aspirated consonants, which means a correctly spelled Telugu lyric gives the model complete information about how each word should sound. Paste Telugu script and most pronunciation problems disappear before they start.
Telugu vowel length is contrastive and the script marks it, so resist the temptation to simplify spellings — the shorter spelling is a different word, not a casual variant.
- Telugu script, spelled properly — the script encodes aspiration.
- Do not simplify long vowels; they change meaning.
- Mridangam, veena and ghatam for classical; name modern instruments explicitly otherwise.
