I personally do not want to take the Hyderabad - Vijayada route since I recently went on the same and found extremely heavy traffic and insane trucks and tractors (right on your face). Please suggest and alternate for the same.

As Abhi suggested, if you want to avoid the Vijaywada route, branch off left at Suryapet towards Khammam, and reach the GQ at Rajahmundry via Sattupalle, Ashwaraopet and Zangareddypalem( or Zangareddyguda)

Your route is fine, but Vizag and Visakhapatnam are one and the same. Further, you will not be touching Vizianagram at all. You will also be bypassing most other places like Srikakulam, Palasa and Berhampur.

It is good to know you are going via the Bhimili route, though it is 10 kms longer, it is exotic as it takes you parallel to the coasline for around 25 kms. You can drive through Bhimili and meet NH5 at Tagarapuvalasa.
