Vijayalakshmi started learning music after her marriage in a music-loving family, where her father-in-law and husband are a classical singer and a mridangam player respectively. It's the atmosphere at her new house that tempted her to learn music. Initially under Lata and Anuradha Desai in Vizianagaram, she is at present learning from Seshulata Vishwanath in Hyderabad. She has given vocal performances at various temples in Yadgirigutta, Bhadrachalam, Simhachalam and Srisailam, Chennai and Srikakulam.
