As part of his kar seva, Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan washed dishes and cleaned the premises at the Golden Temple in Amritsar.

According to ritual and religious belief, by doing manual work, it is a pure devotion to God.

The actor had gone to Amritsar to shoot for the television game show 'National Bingo Night.'

Abhishek's sister Shweta Nanda was also with him and they visited three well-known Gurdwaras.

On his blog bigb. bigadda. com, Amitabh wrote, "Abhishek did some kar seva by cleaning up the premise, and washing the dishes at the 'langar' (in the Golden Temple). There were two other prominent gurdwaras that they visited."

Big B, whose mother Teji Bachhcan was a Sikh, is glad to see the spiritual side of his loving children.

"It is always such a joy to see children putting their minds to faith and devotion. Nothing would give me greater joy and nothing I believe could be better than their achievement in belief and prayer," he added.

Junior Bachchan also wrote a message on his Twitter page saying: "Went to the Golden Temple at 3 in the morning. Did seva for about an hour, then just sat there listening to the kirtan."
