Indian dies nine shy of his dream (Marrying 100 times)
Edited on Sat Apr-09-05 07:05 PM by Champ
New Delhi - An Indian man who claimed to have 91 wives died with the unfulfilled dream of marrying 100 times, it was reported on Friday.

Udaynath Dakhinaray, 84, died this week from complications related to paralysis from an accident two months ago, in the Keonjhar district of eastern Orissa state.

Dakhinaray married young, when he was a student. After his first marriage broke up, he vowed to marry 100 women.

"He never forced any woman to marry him. He married them with their consent," his 90th wife Mira said.

He also boasted about receiving proposals from abroad.

Several of his wives and large brood of children were with him when he passed away. The report didn't say if and how many of the earlier wives he had divorced.
