"I have only visited the place once. I had gone because I believe in worship and god. Whenever we go to such a place, it is not because we want to promote our film. We go there for peace," the 26-year-old said here.
The shrine's dewan, Syed Zainul Abedin Ali Khan, who is also the sajjada nashin (current head) of the Chishti order and claims to be a descendant of the saint, said in a statement Sunday that prayers by actors, directors, producers and musicians at this 12th century shrine for success of their films and TV serials are "intolerable".
Meanwhile, when asked if she is in talks for starring in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Ram Leela", Deepika said, "This is not true. The only film that I am working on currently is 'Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani', which is the most important for me right now because we have a lot of the film left."
Denying rumours that she might star in the director's movie opposite southern actor Vikram, Deepika told: "I got a Google alert about it, but they are all rumours. I am not doing Shankar's film."
Produced by Aascar Ravichandran, Shankar's film features Amy Jackson opposite Vikram, who was seen with Aishwarya Rai in Mani Ratnam's "Raavan". The music of the film is being composed by A.R.Rahman.
"There is 'Race 2', there is 'Kochadaiyaan' with Rajini sir (southern superstar Rajnikanth). There is no other announcement I have to make right now," she added.
