I drove from Kadapa to Pune in Jan this year. The route I took is Kadapa-Gooty-Guntakal-Bellary-Hospet-Gadag-Hubli-Kolhapur-Satara-Pune.

Kadapa to Guntakal The road is very good. From Guntakal to Bellary, the road is very very bad. Virtually the road is non existent. My Indica survived the entire ordeal. All your time calculations will go for a toss. I wanted to night halt at Hospet, but by the time I reached Bellary it was too late. My suggestion is to avoid this road.
From Hospet to Gadag, the road is OK. One side of the road is completely bad, because of the heavy mining trucks. Gadag to Hubli road is very good and virtually no traffic.
