Sudhamani was born to a family of fisher folks. Her schooling ended when she was nine and began to take care of her younger siblings and the family domestic work full-time. From these humble beginnings started the journey of a young woman on the path to 'universal motherhood', which took her to the United Nations General Assembly, where she addressed the world. Even her own mother, Damayanti, and father, Sugunanandan, now address their daughter as Amma. Other aliases are 'Her Holiness' and the 'Divine Mother'. She has also been called 'Mataji'.
