It is not uncommon for Bollywood stars to offer their prayers at various dargahs and shrines before the release of their films. Both Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone have films lined up for release.
Katrina had tied up a scared thread in the shrine of Sheikh Salim Chisti during the shoot of ‘Mere Brother Ki Dulhan’. This Monday, she visited the shrine to offer prayers and untie the sacred thread. Dressed in a black suit and a green scarf, Katrina arrived very early at the dargah and offered a chadar. Assisted by Khadim bhai and Shanu, she then untied a ‘dhaga’ (sacred thread) as fulfilment of her “mannat”.
ASI official Munnazzar Ali said, “This was the third time she came in recent months. She was shooting near the Tereh Mori Bandh with the Fatehpur Sikri ridge in the background for the film.”
Meanwhile, Deepika visited Ajmer Sharif dargah earlier this week to seek blessings. Attired in a simple Indian wear, she carried a cane-basket on her head, filled with flowers. While Katrina visited Sheikh Salim Chisti’s shrine for the third time, Deepika was seen at the Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti shrine at Ajmer for the first time.
