He is a brahmin guy living in bangalore, karnataka. he knows kannada and marati to speak (english, hindi for sure).

He got married in 2003, may 4th. Wife name is Dr. Vijeta Pendarkar.He has a son called Samit born in 2005, october 11th. Rahul has a brother too. His name is Vijay. His wife is not that cute as rahul.

Rahul Dravid has 2 biographies written on his career:
