The name 'Dravid'-itself shows he is a Dravidian.

His anchestors are from Tanjavur District of Tamil Nadu. Go and ask Dravid abt this he himself will accept it.

He is Maratha-Tamilian.

He may born in Indoor and grew up in Banglore but he is absolutely not Kannadiga or Northiee.

This fact is accepted by Dravid himself.

If one married a Marathi girl, then will he become Marathi? and all his past history will go?

If a Hindu marry a Christian, then will he become Christian by birth?

Just because he married a Marathi, don;t say he is a marathi.
