According to the Times of India, the Celebrity Big Brother winner said that she and her husband "are both karma believers".
The actress, who has been celebrating the annual Hindu festival Ganeshotsav with husband Raj Kundra, attributed her recent successes to her religious beliefs.
"I believe in all gods. And Ganpati is the lord of success and removes obstacles. Big Brother happened for me, a whole lot of opportunities opened up for me, and I also met Raj," she said.
Shetty recalled weekly pilgrimages to Mumbai's Siddhivinayak Temple, saying: "I was going through a lean phase and I don't know how many Tuesdays I walked. It must be over 21. But I could see the difference it made to my life."
