The statement came after priests of the Mahakaleshwar temple in Madhya Pradesh's Ujjain objected to the online food delivery firm's advertisement featuring Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan in which the actor says he felt like having a "thali" (food platter) in Ujjain so he ordered it from "Mahakal".
The priests claimed that the ad offended Hindu sentiments demanding its withdrawal by the food aggregator.
In its statement, the company said that the ad "referenced 'thalis' at 'Mahakal Restaurant', and not the revered Shree Mahakaleshwar Temple."
