I don't know if haplogroups could be mixed in here, but L and R2 are probably the two strongest candidates for ancient Dravidian speakers that lived in the Indus region, if you go to Southeast India today R2 is very strong there among Telugu populations.

True, it correlates a progressive expansion of this idiomatic group quite neatly.
