Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in India

I exchanged romantic but not sexually explicit messages with a girl for about a month which I met online. She was fine with the messages till then as she also responded to them in similar manner and didnt ask me to stop sending the msgs. But after we met, I ended the so-called relationship because she was way different in real life. I deleted messages from my cell but she has kept in her. I have told her that I dont want to hear from her and to stop calling me. Now that she's hurt from the rejection, can she use it to frame me in any legal matter. She keeps calling me up threatening legal action. We both are over 30 and we met only once at a public place and didn't indulge in anything except talking during our meeting. Does she have any legal validity for any action - can she go to authorities with harassment claims? Am in trouble with the law? Does the law prohibit romantic messages or even sexual texts between consenting adults?

Sexual text with an intention to outrage the modesty of a crime is an offence. But if the same happens with the consent, you will be safe. There is nothing to worry at this stage.
