Whether you need your money back or you want matrimonial relationship?  If you require returnn of money, it has to be seen that whether you can prove that you have given the money. If you can prove that, then you can get back your money. If you want matrimonial relationship, then it requires emotional attachments, which it appears that from his side, it is lacking.  If there was physical relationship also and now he is backtracking, then it is not just a civil wrong and takes the shape of criminal offence.  If your marriage has been done as per Special Marriage Act before the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (he is the marriage officer in Delhi under Special Marriage Act), then you need not worry about his babbling that he was forced for marriage.  The court will not accept such excuses.  I hope I answered your questions.

Shilpi, agree with Adv. Chandrashekhar. Do you have proof of monies paid to him? Hopefully by check/cheque? If not, say goodbye to everything because it is clear that he does not have good intentions.  He just wanted to use you and did so. You will be spending a good four or five years in Courts. Yours is a very very SAD story. If yours is a genuine case, may be some advocate on this site from your city or his will volunteer to help you for free. 


Remember that in a marriage when the opposing party's intentions are not to get back into the relationship, there is very little that can be achieved through the Court system in terms of recovery of personal/emotional damage. Only recovery can be of monies and that too may not be too easy. He can always claim that he was paying you back in cash...  


Be strong emotionally because you will need all the strength now to accept the reality.
