Telugu, Kannada and Tamil are equally old. Kannada and Tamil greatly influenced by Sanksrit and Telugu was influence by Prakrit. Prakrit was a natural language and oldest inscriptions are found in Prakrit language and Sanskrit took over and became administrative language.

In 458AD old Kannada became first administrative language of Karnata (which uses kadamba script aka old-kannada script) and next was Telugu became second administrative language of Trilanga Desha and in the 7th century Tamil kings followed neighbors and it became third administrative language in the tamil country.

All the written literature works in Telugu, Kannada and Tamil started from 9th century onwards and part of those works are pretty faithful to Sankrit work.

Tamil claiming oldest and all is just political in nature without technical back up. This propoganda stared in 1920 to overthrow growing Sanksrit in the region against Brahmins and this has led to DMK kind of parties coming into power.
