Purvi Onir marriage can be voided or annulled very easily, even divorce wont be required, according to Hindu Marriage Act.

Because 1) they didnt consummate the marriage

2) Purvi was pregnant with someone else's child at the time of marriage.

This is from Hindu Marriage Act:

Any marriage can be voidable and may be annulled on the following grounds: the marriage has not been consummated due to impotency, contravention of the valid consent, mental illness condition specified in Section 5, or that the respondent at the time of the marriage was pregnant by someone other than the petitioner.

To add, the fact ovi and Arjun married was a joke in the first place that set off all the subsequent mistakes. For once, a reality that shd have happened is finally happening. And I am well over 30 and do not think that ovi wanting divorce sends a wrong message. Even mahaan onir gets that and is supportive of that. Who wants to be in a loveless marriage just because society says so. It is better to be all alone than be in a situation like that.

I think the cvs are finally on board with the fact it is not a joke and trying to fix their mistake

You're welcome.

In real court evidentiary value given to the words of a witness matters a lot. So, Onir's claim that he did not know about Purvi's pregnancy could be proved wrong very easily. You asked "Purvi was pregnant, how can Purvi prove otherwise?" The answer is simple. The oral evidence given by Arjun (remember Onir sharing his innermost feelings with his ex-best buddy Arjun), Manav and other family members would establish Purvi's claim (provided that Purvi really wanted to prove that Onir knew about the pregnancy).

Now, considering the fact that the family members also lie in favour of Onir's claim of ignorance, still Onir's friend from Kolkata, Soumya da (the servant at the Dutta place), the gynaec who treated Purvi in Mumbai (Purvi told her that Onir accepted her with the knowledge that she was carrying someone else's baby), mutual acquaintances can prove the truth of Onir's knowlege. Onir had claimed to all and sundry that he was eagerly waiting for his baby's arrival in this world and since till date Onir and Purvi have not consummated their marriage, so the direct conclusion would be that Onir knew that Purvi was pregnant with someone else's baby.

I would like to thank you for sharing such a wonderful real life incident of women empowerment. In India, I believe, it is still rare to find women raising their voices against oppression. Especially married women show reluctance to protest against the torture meted out to them by their husbands and in laws. You'll be perhaps shocked to know (or maybe not) that majority of these women are highly educated and well placed in life, coming from the so called upper strata of society. They silently shed tears and accept the bullying as their fate. I think this girl showed tremendous courage by revolting against the injustice.

I have read a lot of posts made by you, so, if I'am not wrong you're a Bong. Being a fellow Bong I hope the woman you're talking about is from Bengal (as you stated that she lived in your neighbourhood). If yes, I'd say, she makes me feel extra proud because of her deeds.

However, are you sure that she got an annulment and not a divorce? Because if it was an annulment then I'm sure the woman showed her husband to be impotent or she might have proved her case using other provisions of the law.

Going by whatever you've narrated of the story, I think she got a divorce(she has valid grounds to seek the same) and used the term annulment interchangeably.

Whatever the case I applaud her courage and wisdom. I also appreciate your effort in telling us about her brave attempt.

Lastly, a big thank you for taking my earlier post so positively and bothering to reply. Very nice of you to do so.
