Vishwas thanks for the info, never knew this, wonder if this is connected to Marathi za.
I always thought that there is something wrong with the way we are pronouncing it because Telugu doesn't have za and only one or two words I listed are pronounced with that sound. One more thing that convinced of the wrong idea was the fact that as far as I remember we never learned about the two "Historic Phonetic Variants" while learning Telugu.
