1. A K അന്തോണി (central minister, as pronounced in Thamizh and not English)
2. ആദം & ഹവ്വ (First man & woman, Biblical)
3. അടൽ ബിഹാരി വാജ്പേയി (first name of former PM, BJP)

9. ആലപ്പുഴ (Kerala town / district of famous snake boat race)
10. ആലുവ (Another Kerala town near Ernakulam, famous for Sivarathri, on the banks of Periyar river)
Hopefully these are easy to crack!
