I think with little speedup and reducing slack between Kacheguda- Bangalore this train can reach Kurnool in 3hr 35 minute's and Bangalore around by 11: 50 AM or 12:30 PM.

As there is no alternate daily train people prefer Prashanti exp though it leaves midday and reaches midday. Buses are taking 17-19 hrs depending on the traffic and reaching before 9AM and have drop points along ORR where max telugu people reside. So a train via mainline with 18-19 hrs is required to Bangalore reaching in morning hrs 5-8 at KR Puram/BYPL and starting with one rake biweekly can be made 4 days with 2 rakes. We have 4 flights from VSP to Blore and increasing to 6 from winter schedule as the train takes 23hrs. So Extention to Kurnool will benefit 2 dts of Telenagana and Andhra as it has ample time. One more aspect if DD is replaced with normal rake and given RSA with this train it requires SM at KCG with PM at VSKP after completing TPTY-VSKP-KCG
if it's extended upto Bengaluru east Telangana people will get benefited with this train...
Train via mainline will take time better this train can help Visakhapatnam- Bangalore pax.
Extension till bangalore is tough proposal as I don't see any return daily slots availability between bangalore-dharamawaram-kurnool. May be it can be made 10-11am departure at Bangalore but it is highly unlikely unless doubling is completed between yelahanka and gooty. I think it's better to extend till Kurnool
