Delegates are similar to function pointers of C++, they hold the address of a function, they hide the actual information.
.Net supports 2 types of delegates:
1)Single Cast Delegate
2)Multi Cast Delegate

Multi Cast Delegate holds the addresses of more than one function.

YES,two delegates can refer the same function i.e,two delegates can hold the address of same method.

Hai Sushma,
                   Thanks a lot for ur reply.
 
Still i have a doubt in this topic. 
Whether multiple delegates are also called as multi cast delegate OR multiple delegates is a separate topic.

Regards,
Dinesh

Multi cast delegates means a delegate can hold more than one methods but not vice versa.

multiple delegates and multicast delegates both are diffrent terms with diffrent aspects.
delegate having one property that it could have multiple delegates in it.it means single delegates contain multiple delegates definition while
in other case multicast delagates means single delagates contain refrence of several methods......
