An Alternative For Mr., Mrs. Ms. In Telugu?

[lazybugger]

I cringe everytime I hear a Tamil or Telugu person uses 'ji' as a honorific. eg. Modi'ji'.

 

I admit it doesn't happen that often. But is there a way to address a person in telugu like you do in English. eg. Mr. Smith.

 

'garu' doesn't cut it because its gender neutral.

But what about a woman who is unmarried, but is old and worthy of respect?

But people cringe if you call them potato

still seems a bit odd to call someone, lets say like Jayalalitha, a Kumari.
