Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

hi i am from Hyderabad well i have a blackmail problem with my friend who had recorded some of my conversations with him and also i think he has also recorded my discussions with him actually the discussions where about Political leaders Cinema Actors and couple of others of our friends fathers in which i was telling him when he asked the question about how corrupted their where in their jobs and how did they made money we both had couple of beers and then he again he started asking me questions about various film actors how they buy properties do they get any subsidy from the government i casually took his questions and answered what usually people talk which he also knows as most people in india do talk about cricket, cinema and politics i work for a film company and my friend has also certain contacts in the film industry now i know that he will start black mailing me with his other friend and tell me that he will leak the recording film footage to the media if i don't meet his demands well i am not very sure if there is any recording film footage that is available with him or not but sure that he has recorded our casual conversations i am feed up with this as he started behaving strangely and i am facing lot of cytological and health problems because of this and i have to take care of my grand mother well my version of looking at this is that i had a common conversation which usually friends have when they meet they discuss about some body or comment or talk some rubbish which even they don't know what they are talking about. My points which i need to know is that

1.What if he has got the recording film footage as technology has improved he may edit the recording film footage according to his wish if he wants to and make my life miserable for a simple conversations of base less allegations which i made on others.

2.Or what if he has only the Voice recording.on this basis can he prove something casually started conversation into some thing big and blackmail me and lose my respect in the society.

How should i go about this matter what would be worse thing that will happen to me if i don't accept his demands and decide to go through court of laws if he decides to leak my voice recording or film.Please let me help by answering this question so that i may breath.

you have not mentioend whether u a gal or a boy. whatever may be the case, he cannot blackmail you on the basis of conversation that you had with him. what are his demands, is he demanding money or other favours. however, u need not worry as nothing can be done this case. have a sigh of relief.

He cannot prove anything on this basis and u r not culprit but yes you can lodge the complaint of blackmailing and threats from that person and police will definatly arrest that person immediatly and wil also recover the tape if any but you will not be proceedid on that basis.

Go ahead and file a complaint and dont worry you are safe.
