Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia

My friend is an Indian-American who currently lives in USA. He had been married for four years with a long distance relative family member in India. But his marriage had not been legally accepted by the Indian-USA Embassy under the Hindu Act Law. Under the Hindu Act Law, he has not been validly married as per stated in the denied finance visa paper. Additionally, there had been no correspondence between both families for last one year. And the worst case scenario, his in-law family has been moved to an unknown location and has not even tried to contact for the whole year. My friend has tried contacting his in law-family by phone, email and personal mail-in letters but still no response. What should my friend do now? Wait for more time or get married to a different girl and move on? Do my friend need to file a divorce or not as he has not been validly married?
