How store Downloaded file using DownloadManager to app's files directory allocated?

Question

I am trying to store downloaded file using DownloadManager to app/s files directory allocated by android.For this i am using following code

downloadManager=(DownloadManager)getSystemService(Context.DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
    Uri uri = Uri.parse(link);
    DownloadManager.Request request= new DownloadManager.Request(uri);
    request.setNotificationVisibility(DownloadManager.Request.VISIBILITY_VISIBLE_NOTIFY_COMPLETED);
    request.setVisibleInDownloadsUi(false);
    request.setTitle(fileName);

    File file = ctx.getFilesDir();
    Uri myPath=Uri.fromFile(file);
    request.setDestinationUri(myPath);

    Long reference= downloadManager.enqueue(request);
    Toast.makeText(DownloadActivity.this,"Downloading Started",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

By using this code i am getting following error

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
Process: com.puranepaper.PuranePaper, PID: 18263
java.lang.SecurityException: Unsupported path /data/data/com.puranepaper.PuranePaper/files

Other apps (including the download manager) have no access to your app's internal memory.
