Modi, the party's prime ministerial candidate, went to the senior leader's residence and was there for about half-an- hour, apparently to persuade him to contest from Gandhinagar, the seat which Advani has represented five times in Lok Sabha.
Arun Jaitley, Venkaiah Naidu and Sushma Swaraj, too, met Advani today. Swaraj had also met him along with Nitin Gadkari yesterday after the party announced Advani's candidature from Gandhinagar.
"There are no differences. There is nothing. If there are talks, it will be settled internally... Peacefully and calmly," she told reporters at the BJP headquarters here.
She did not comment when asked if the veteran leader wanted to contest from Bhopal and not Gandhinagar, but said that the party had made the announcement and senior leaders were talking to Advani.

Advani has said that he be given a chance to select a seat of his choice just as other top BJP leaders like Rajnath Singh, Arun Jaitley and Modi had done.
The 86-year old party stalwart had conveyed his displeasure to Swaraj and Gadkari when they met him last night. The duo had then met BJP president Rajnath Singh to apprise him of Advani's views.
Modi had last night met RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, apparently to seek his intervention in resolving the issue.
