Nilgiri etymology :

Proto-Nilgiri : *kodĭ-

Meaning : to boil

South Dravidian etymology: South Dravidian etymology

Kota : kodc- (kodc-) "to quiver (of water about to boil, flesh of animal just killed, eyelid)"

Toda : kwɨɵy- (...) "(water) approaches boiling-point"

Additional forms : Also Toda kwɨɵyet_-, kwɨɣkyet_- to make (water) boil; ? kwɨy- (kwɨc-) to bubble, boil

Notes : In Kota the present stem was replaced by analogy with the past stem. It is unclear whether Toda kwɨy- belongs here. Since this is the only certain example of a verbal stem in *-dǐ-, the following development is not excluded: (a) *kod-ǐ-t- > Toda *kwɨɵc- > *kwɨc-; (b) *kod-ǐ- > kwɨy- as a hypercorrect back-formation from the past stem *kwɨc-. In this case kwɨɵy- would either be an archaic variant or a newer re-borrowing.
