if one may prove that one is married while other spouse is living and also not divorced then bigamy is the offence. police case may be registered. trial would be conducted before the magistrate.

There may also be another case under Domestic Violence Act for compensation etc.

Wife may also seek maintainance under 125 Cr P C

at the most, you may be charged with bigamy and the offence of bigamy is bailable and the trial would linger on for years together. your wife will have to prove that you contracted marriage with all the rites and ceremonies and it is an herculean task. as a lawyer i advice you to not to complicate your life but rest is upto you.
