Hi. I want to correct lyrics for the song tulasi daLamulacE. I am very sure that it is tulasi and not tuLasi as written on karnaTik, based on my own knowledge and much anecdotal evidence.

I think tuLasi is the normal usage in the South. It is like the name shyAmala (in the north) and shyAmaLa (in the south).

shalak: Although both are spoken, in Telugu, I can say that tulasi is in common usage vs. tuLasi. I have been corrected many times when I sang tuLasi. I will do more research and get back to you on the prakruti and vikruti of it all.

Is this an exception or should it also apply to words like tala, pralaya, manjula, parimala, vela, mangala, talaka, talanu, kuvalayadala etc where L is normally used in Telugu language?

I would consider this an exception sir. In Sanskrit it seems to be tuLasi. But everyone I know says tulasi in Telugu. Balamurali sir, who is more knowlegable in this, sings tulasi in telugu and tuLasi in Sanskrit.
As a side note sir, many kritis have different variations in lyrics that are equally valid. Is there a way that this could be addressed on the website?

in Telugu, tuLasi is just wrong. It should be tulasi. The hard "La' is used sparingly and with only special rules based on the preceding consonant sound. Tamil and Malayalam use the hard "La" a lot and it is used much less often in Telugu.
