Vijayanirmala the director and actor who passed away wanted to direct Mahesh Babu the son of Superstar Krishna. After the super-duper success of Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu, Vijayanirmala wanted to direct a family drama. She has seen the movie SVSC with Mahesh and appreciated him as well as the director of the movie. It is reported that she was happy that two front runners in Tollywood have worked together for the movie and that it paves way for a healthy trend in the industry.

But somehow the movie with Mahesh did not materialise for Vijayanirmala. It is learnt that Mahesh was very hesitant to work with Nirmala. As he was doing well with super duper hits.

She also wanted to complete 50 movies as a director. But she could do only 44 movies. She had a success of more than 50 per cent in the direction. Majority of the movies were with her husband and hero Krishna.

People in the industry opined that it was not an easy task for a woman to direct so many movies.

Usually, it is called as a male-dominated industry. People who have seen Nirmala closely said that she was a hard taskmaster and while directing she was better than a man.

Taking Nirmala as inspiration several women have started working in the direction department.
