What can I do if my wife is threatening to file 498a IPC against me?

My wife is threatening to file 498a : once my mother and wife had an argument then she called her mother and started shouting and accusing that 1)my mother is beating her(not happened) 2) I strangled her neck( I held her mouth,as she was shouting)i have video records that we didn't touched her. dowry case : I am in government service and I haven't took a single penny from them, instead I have given them money while they were purchasing jwellery for my wife. She never listens to my mother and gives reply in a very bad manner,so in reaction to this only my mother used to ask for the home essentials such as tv fridge etc which they promised to give before marriage. I will be very thankful if someone helps me out with this . Should I be concern,what will happen if she files a case? .

If your wife files any complaint against you or your mother, then the police will conduct an investigation regarding the same. Thereafter, you may have to take anticipatory bail or you may end up in judicial custody where Section 498A is a serious offence and is a non-bailable offence under the law.
