# About Yoga Anushka says; The most memorable moment in my life is when I took the decision to teach yoga. It got me so for in life. It gave high endurance to my body and a sense of clarity, direction & balance to my mind. Yoga is not a part of my life, it is my life. She has been practicing it diligently for 11 years.
# About God and Divinity she says "Am not God fearing but God loving. I could put all the idols on my bed & sleep, I'm so fond of them. My mom would always tell me that I can walk into the pooja room with slippers as long as I have my belief intact".
# She also says "I have no problems with failures. I'm afraid of failing within myself. I have to be honest, at times when I know I did something wrong I don't sleep that night. I'm scared of facing myself".
# Anushka reveals her loyalty lies with commercial cinema. She remarks that Hindi film are getting real and it is snatching away the magic of cinema. She would any day dance in the Alps and be a Layman's muse and questions "What's the big deal if I dress casually and dance in my backyard. Will they ever get to see Switzerland, gorgeous costumes?" It is to fall in love with Anushka and far easier to please her, just bring her out when there is breeze, clouds and some soft drizzle and she will flash that million-dollar smile.
# There are some reports regarding the secret engagement of Anushka with Nagachytanya. but the Bangalore beauty denies it as a baseless rumour and further said, "I'm neither in love with Nag nor marry him in future, he is too younger to me. Moreover, I'm already having a lover and will tie the knot with him with in 2 years".
# The latest buzz is that Anushka and Simbu are planning to marry soon. Silambarasan the young superstar of Tollywood said 'Anushka is a total beauty. I admire her professionalism and the grace with she handles her personal life. Truly am lucky to have her'.
Anushka also disclosed 'I love his X6 BMW. He took me on a long drive & that's when he proposed to me. I had to say yes, since he is such a well brought-up person with nice values'. If it is true wish they will get their good life with the nice start.
