Manhani means defamation of individual by other person in order to malign the status or reputation of the individual in the society.
Yes, you can file criminal case for defamation before metropolitan court u/s 500 of IPC. Send a legal notice to him before filing the case.

Dear Ms. Ritu,

You can go for defamation case along with Sec 420 cheating as well. But be advised that SC has already said if a party breaks alliance so he will pay all the expenses incurred, they will liable of this as well.
