can one be married in a catholic church on a saturday and then be married in lets say a hindu ceremony at another time.also can someone give me tips on the search function ,i tried and could not find anything.
 
No this is not allowed. Here is the relevant section from canon law.

Can. 1127 §3. It is forbidden to have another religious celebration of the same marriage to give or renew matrimonial consent before or after the canonical celebration according to the norm of §1. Likewise, there is not to be a religious celebration in which the Catholic who is assisting and a non-Catholic minister together, using their own rites, ask for the consent of the parties.

Sorry can’t help on the search function
 
That is like asking “Can I ask God into my life and then ask a false god into my life and still be following God?”

Of course not. The Catholic faith has seven sacraments, and receiving one to then throw it on the ground like trash is very disrespectful to our Holy Father in Heaven.
 
While its true that you can’t have two different marriages, you can have a renewal of vows if done correctly. It would not be able to be a renewal that was tied to a different religion, but it is allowed to have such a renewal.
