Recently I came across a few recordings of Lahari Kolachela, a young artiste from Andhra. Excellent singer indeed.
I would be interested in finding out more about her, including her guru's name. Hope she is singing at the music season this December.
A sample of her singing follows. This is a rare Dikshitar kriti in Jyoti ragam (mela 68 in asampurna system):

She is the daughter of Prof. Saraswathi Vidyarthi and grand daughter of Sri I.V.L Sastry (of Sangita Janakulam - a free music school and the person behind a vast rasika base in Visakhapatnam) of Visakhapatnam. She has learnt from her mother/grand father and now continues to learn from Sri Nedunuri (also her mother's guru)
