"You really have to ask me that question? Obviously Shah Rukh Khan. On screen and off-screen, everywhere, it's Shah Rukh Khan," she told reporters when asked to name the most romantic hero.
She was speaking at the unveiling of Geetanjali's Valentine jewellery collection Thursday.
"He (SRK) respects women a lot and I think that is something extremely nice. He is extremely charming," added the model-turned actress who is five-year-old in filmdom.
Expression of love may be larger-than-life in movies, but In real life, Anushka feels love is all about small gestures and not grand displays.
"It (love) is a very subjective thing. To me, I prefer simplicity. I will find love in very small gestures and not in big displays or ways like booking a whole restaurant and all," Anushka said.
"I think it's more about small, small things - like when unexpectedly someone can shower you with love and attention. To me that's more special," she added.
Often seen as chirpy and bubbly girl on celluloid, Anushka's last outing was "Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola" where she featured as spunky girl.
Her forthcoming projects are "Bombay Velvet" and "P.K." with superstar Aamir Khan.
