Super Star Krishna's grandson, Mahesh Babu's nephew, and Guntur MP Galla Jayadev's son Galla Ashok made his debut with Hero. The film directed by Sriram Aditya was released on January 15 as a Sankranti treat. Despite the best efforts, the film turned out to be an average grosser. In fact all the Sankranti releases, be it Nagarjuna's Bangarraju, Dil Raju's nephew Ashish Reddy's Rowdy Boys and Galla Ashok's Hero did not get good talk at the box office.

However, with no real competition and being the festival season, they are saved from the doldrums. In the meantime, it is coming out that Galla Ahosk is not the first choice for HERO. When Sriram Aditya and Nitin planned to do a project, Sriram Aditya narrated the HERO story to Nitin. Both even worked out on the project and the story for some time but Nitin expressed his dissatisfaction over the story.

The project got shelved and at the same time, Sriram Aditya got a call from Guntur MP Galla Jayadev to launch his son Galla Ashok and HERO turned into a reality. Thus Nitin had a HEROic escape.
