Yes that is possible now in India, if there is a exceptional case. One party is living outside India and cannot come back after 6 months waiting period due to other preoccupations in the foreign country is good ground to convince the Family Court judge to allow the condonation of 6 months waiting period and allow the second motion in a week's time.
