I think the problem with using Anushka as a nn in the US is that most US nicknames are short and to the point (Ed, Bill, Amy, Lena, etc.) because nns are used so one doesn't have to take the time to say the full name (Edward, William, Amelia, Milena). Anushka looks more like a full name and I don't think many people in the US would see it as a nn.
