Charminar is almost 30 yrs old we can say(I'm not sure about this). People pay PT fares for confirmed tickets in both Chennai and Charminar exp, so I would say, both trains are required to cater growing demands.

59/60 was actually started as a special between Madras and Hyderabad
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
59/60 Madras-Hyderabad Charminar Express from 5 days a week to daily -- 88-89 budget
59/60 Hyderabad-Madras Charminar Express from 3 days to 4 days a week -- 87-88 budget
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later re-numbered as 6059/6060. From there it became 7059/7060. After superfast it was 2759/2760.
What do mean by "Why it was started already having Chennai Hyderabad Express."?
