Su Ki Sivam is a household name in Tamil Nadu. His face mouthing discourses beams through the homes of many Tamil Hindus. His discourses do get a considerable audience. But the man isn’t as sweet and innocent as he sounds in front of gullible Hindus. The man is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
A Son Of A Nationalist, Now A Dravidian Stockist
Su Ki Sivam’s initials has a story. His father Suki Subramaniam crafted it. He took Su from Subramaniam, his own name and merged it with Ki, for Krishnamurthy as a tribute to the literary revolutionary and freedom fighter Kalki Krishnamurthy and made ‘Su Ki’ as his family’s initials. Bearing the name of a nationalist, SuKi Sivam’s father wouldn’t have approved the Dravidian Stockist SuKi Sivam of today.
A Puff Piece With Agenda
SuKi Sivam, popular motivational speaker and writer had forayed into giving spiritual discourses for many years now. His discourses were always perceived as cursory, as it hit the intellect, but it failed to appeal to a devout heart. While his delivery lacked devotion and execution reeked more of economics than education, the point is this – He has an agenda which he subtly pushed into his discourses. He blames one community for all social evils, which is straight out of the Dravidian playbook.
At one point, he himself said: “En ootula, In my house, I have kept 7 volumes of Dheivathin Kural and 14 volumes of Periyar Sindhanaigal in the same shelf. In my scale, Kanchi Periyar (Sri Chandrasekharendra Swamigal) and Erode Periyar (rabid anti-Hindu bigot EV Ramasamy Naicker) are equally balanced”.
In his high intellectual eyes, the venerated saint Kanchi Maha Periyavaa who had walked the length and breadth of Bharat defending Dharma and upholding the Hindu way of life is equivalent to the foul mouthed dual marriage cynic EVR.
It is a shame that the gullible Hindus clapped gleefully at this and was not cancelled after making such a ridiculous comparison.
He did not stop there. An opportunist finds ways to ruffle feathers and make money off it. He endorsed the bizarre theory that Muruga and Subrahmanya are different, thus vomiting a regurgigated version of Aryan and Dravidian divide. And the work he cited to support his claims was of Arivumathi, a Dravidian Stockist’s fallacious research book as proof.
“Is Lord Murugan the same as Subramanian or diferent?”
He recently spoke in favor of Hindu Religious & Charitable Endowments (HR&CE) being in control of all Hindu temples, while taking unwarranted jibes at Tamil Nadu BJP President K. Annamalai for suggesting otherwise.
Su Ki Sivam vouching for HR&CE is nothing but the need for a ‘devout-appearing’ man to push the agenda of a party known for its anti-Hindu venom. People won’t buy if it is done by an anti-Hindu Dravidian Stockist.
This is nothing but the standard trope meant to gaslight Hindus saying “See.. it is a respected member of your own community who is saying this”.
Buttressing DMK
Recently, the Palani Murugan temple was consecrated during which multiple instances of Agama violated were reported. HR&CE Minister P. Sekarbabu was seen standing shirtless outside the sanctum sanctorum and in another video Dindigul DMK MP Veluchamy can be seen coming out from the sanctum sanctorum.
பழனி மலைக்கோயில் கருவறைக்குள் நுழைந்தது விஐபி கலாச்சாரம்! கூடாது என்று நீதிமன்றம் கூறிய போதிலும் திமுகவினர் அறநிலையத்துறை அமைச்சர் அல்லேலுயா சேகர்பாபு முன்னிலையில் கருவறைக்குள் சென்று வந்துள்ளனர். இந்த பாவம் அவர்களை சும்மா விடாது! பக்தர்களின் சாபம் அவர்களை தொடரும்! pic.twitter.com/PBGMfbXJqg
In an attempt to buttress the DMK, Su Ki Sivam had blabbered that Palani Dhandayudhapani does not need Agama prescribed worship as it is a deity installed by Sidhars and that Lord Muruga himself is a Sidhar at Palani.
“The name of Muruga at Palani is Sidhar Nathan. He does not have a Vel (spear) or peacock (Lord Muruga’s vehicle). He is Dhandayuthapani having a dhanda (a lathi). A loincloth wearing saint. He is a Siddhar.”, Su Ki Sivam had said.
But according to Hindu Tamil texts, Shaiva agamas prescribe 17 forms for Muruga in which his Palani Aandi form also fits. Tirumoolar, a Sidhar himself, has venerated Agamas.
A Loyal Servant To His Masters At Arivalayam
It is to be noted that Su Ki Sivam was comferred with the Kalaimamani award by the erstwhile DMK government of Karunanidhi in 2009.
He was appointed as an advisor to the Tamil Nadu HR&CE department by CM Stalin in January 2022. So, Su Ki Sivam’s utterances on HR&CE should not come as a surprise. After all, he is trying to be a loyal servant to his masters.
Following the appointment, in March 2022, Su Ki while speaking at a DMK function had extolled MK Stalin’s government saying “no historian, journalist, political commentators had imagined that he would provide such great governance”.
He also took sly digs at the AIADMK as well when he said “The Hon’ble Chief Minister is swearing in. On one side there is corona and on the other side gaaliyaana gajana (empty treasury subtly attacking AIADMK). He pulled off a thillana“.
Even before the present DMK came to power he had shared stage with MK Stalin with other controversial personalities like self-proclaimed Carnatic musician TM Krishna, self-proclaimed dancer and DMK member Zakirn Hussain.

Su Ki claims to be influenced by Kirubanandha Vaariyaar. But Vaariyaar Swamigal was a Hindu warriorn who took the Dravidianist dimwits head on. He gave the perfect and stinging rebuttal to all the pseudo-rationalistic barbs of the Dravidian leaders who otherwise swayed crowds with their oratorical skills. He had called EVR as a poisonous river flowing in Tamil Nadu. He had also once made a sly reference to Annadurai’s death saying that even American doctors could not save him for which DMK goons attacked Variyar and his Murugan idol. Vaariyar Swamigal did not drive a wedge between Tamil and Sanskrit unlike the neo-Nazi racists and demagogues currently dominating the political space in Tamil Nadu.
On the other hand, Su Ki equates EVR to a saint. Vaariyaar braved goons who attacked him, and Su Ki endorses that party’s men. And Su Ki has the gall to call Vaariyaar as his mentor!
It is high time this wolf in sheep’s clothing is called out for what he is. A dubious Dravidianist in the guise of a discourser.
