Your question a weird one as how two male persons can be so close unless they were in same sex relationship.

Anyway you have done acts in your own wisdom and now you can lodge complaint if there is criminal intimidation where you not are supposed to quote a section

Dear Client,

You can file a criminal case against him on the ground of his criminal intimidation, Criminal mischief and stalking under IPC etc. You can file FIR against him with th police. Stalkers are punished according to current law. So file appropriate criminal complaints on the ground of his criminal intimidation, mischief, stalking, also seeking compensation etc from the accused

dont bow down to his blackmail tactics .

next time he calls you record the telephone conversation. did you have physical relations with him?
he would not threaten suicide unless there was an intimate bond between you .
as advised by experts you can lodge police complaint against him for criminal intimidation .

you can also change your mobile number . it would be difficult for him to contact you unless he has your residential address

Thanks to all experts for guidance.
Mr. Ajay Sethi sir it is unnatural platonic love from his side.Actually he has troubled upbringing in which he is always cut off with his family. Now he sought emotional support outside his family I and few friends helped him to counter his negative feelings meanwhile i was unaware of his attachment with me or i have overlooked. I've never suggested him that i may take his family's place.
All off a sudden he started trying to pressurize me to do things of his liking, he started criticizing my every decision,his doesnot not when i speak with my family. consequently i've warned him if he would not stop doing so i'll stop talking with him. I did as such. Now more over it has now become his psychological problem. I am helpless and clueless.

consult a psychiatrist . he needs medical help

Keep distance from him. This is the only remedy.

Record his calls and gather proofs. Advise him to consult some psychiatrist on telephone also. Avoid him.

Can you keep him at distance without responding? It is very simple. It appears you have some soft corner in your heart towards him.
Remove it and be strong. This type of threats will never materialise. If you are not interested to keep the relation, you simply keep away. You need not take any action against that old man. But keep some proof of his threats with you as suggested by experts above only to avoid future complications if any.
