Sorry , no country has advanced so much that second marriage is possible in such circumstances.

You must have heard such thing in a movie theater.
Nadeem Qureshi (Expert) 25 February 2014
second marriage is an offence
Biswanath Roy (Expert) 25 February 2014
According to Hindu Marriage Act second marriage is illegal and punishable. Therefore, your queries are irrelevant.

If you want to marry second wife you have to get valid divorce of the first wife through the court and then go for marriage of second wife.
