Sir, any child from the first marriage and second marriage will have equal legal rights over immovable assets of their deceased father, whether it is self-acquired or hereditary property. According to the Hindu Marriage Act 1955, re-marriage without the legal termination of the first marriage is considered prohibited.  So, in this case before making any claim you need to be sure if his second wife was legally married to him or not.
