There is ABSOLUTELY NO POSSIBILITY of your marrying this man till his first marriage is dissolved by court in accordance with the provisions of Hindu Marriage Act, 1956.
The conversion to Islam is no solution.
The theory of "emotional blackmail by parents" is always meant only to please the 'other' girl; and it is a matter of choice for the 'other' girl to accept that for her own reasons.
You need to accept the fact that the man has married by his own wish and he is continuing in marriage.
Advice : think of your own life independent of this 'boyfriend' if you want to avoid mess in his and in your life. He may be too happy to get rid of you for the sake of his married life.

you cannot marry till earlier marraige is dissolved
Re: change of relegion
converting for marriage to islam would be colourful conversion and your marriage null and void. However your bf can file petition for divorce in the court.

Hello.
No way you can marry this person until his first marriage is dissolved by the Hon'ble Court.
Just be careful or else you can be in a big trouble.
