I wouldn't worry too much about the pronunciation if I were you. The same name is often pronounced very differently in the different parts of India, a country with twelve (I think) main languages and hundreds of lesser ones. If you're not happy with that I'd suggest pronouncing each syllable with equal emphasis; the D and H are pronounced separately, something very difficult for some of us; and the Rs would be trilled, if you know what I mean.
