Ram-da,
I think any non-Hindu is welcome to most Hindu temples --except some stuck up ones which are too rich to bother --like Kashmiri Pandits did not bother about accepting the return to Hinduism of those who had been forced to convert to ISlam -- and now it is too late. Now Kasmiri Pandits themselves have to flee the land.

Hi Priyankoo & Umesh,
On the other hand, Indira Gandhi was allowed into the Tirupati Temple
(inner sanctum & all), and during one of the most auspicious prayer.
She was accorded a reception that Gods themselves might have envied.
The temple supposedly allows widows only into certain recesses and
not in others.
But, I guess, being a PM helps, then the Gods themselves are
gratified that big-wig politicians (or movie stars) have made the trek
to worship.
BTW: Is Dr. Kalam allowed into any temple? I wonder.
