A.You can do three things
1. File RCR if you want to stay together
2. File MCD if you want to get separated on mutual grounds
3. Contest the divorce if you cannot settle mutually
However if you contest, be prepared for
1. 498A
2. Domestic Violence Act and
3. 125 CrPC

A.1. if you want to remain in a matrimonial knot, then,
try to settle the matter amicably with your wife involving elders/relatives/friends etc, take her back and start afresh, and if, failed, file Restitution of conjugal rights petition in the Court,
and,
2. if you want to terminate the matrimonial knot, then,
try to settle the matter amicably with your wife involving elders/relatives/friends etc and go for Mutual Consent Divorce which will be decided in 6-18 months, and you both will be free to live life with your wish,
if failed, you have two options,
one option is to,
file contested divorce on the grounds of mental cruelty, but it will take around 4-6 years,
also once you file contested divorce she will surely file/claim
498a complaint,
Domestic Violence case,
maintenance,
so be ready for them too,
and,
the second option is to file Restitution of conjugal rights petition in the Court, to show your bonafide intentions to save the matrimonial tie, however, you can withdraw the same any time,
RCR will work as a safeguard to 498a, maintenance, DV etc
Call/mail for a detailed discussion/understanding
