Now that's one helluva brainwave. Only - you wont get other star alliance miles on Silkair .. only on SQ. If that matters for such a short flight (less than 2000 miles). Ooty and then Kodaikanal as well.

Chennai-Mahabalipuram-Madurai-Ooty-Coimbatore

And leave Kerala for another trip. Any opinions? @:-)
