Soon after that, the couple performed Jalabhishek.

After worship consecration, they spend some time in the temple premises. Earlier, Virat and Anushka had embarked on a spiritual trip to Rishikesh.
The couple paid a visit to Swami Dayanand Giri Ashram. Several pictures went viral in which Anushka and Virat can be seen seen praying at the ashram.
Their visit to Rishikesh came days after the duo along with their daughter Vamika sought blessings at an ashram in Vrindavan.
