Wife not living with husband right from the marriage but seeking maintenance

Hello sir, I got married on 18.01.2017, but my wife refused to live with me at my home and has not lived with me since then. She is currently staying with her parents. I filed for divorce after 5 years under section 13(1)(ia)(ib) of the Hindu Marriage Act, which is pending. Now, after 6 years, she has filed a case under section 125 of the CrPC for maintenance and interim maintenance. My question is whether she is entitled to maintenance despite not living with me at my home since marriage and suppressing her hormonal imbalance, which affects sexual activity. 

Since the first day of my marriage, I have been subjected to extreme cruelty, harassment, and cheating by my husband and his family

Since the first day of my marriage, I have been subjected to extreme cruelty, harassment, and cheating by my husband and his family. As well as denial of sex, and my husband’s extramarital affair. They demanded more dowry, broke their promise to move to XXX for work, and forced me to leave my job and work as a servant. My husband rejected me completely and physically abused me when I confronted him about his affair. I left and now my husband and in-laws are pressuring me to give a mutual divorce and are defaming my family. I am mentally depressed and need guidance on what steps I can take to address this situation.
