If your name is not in FIR then it means you were not named as accused by the Police. Therefore, there is nothing to worry about your friends. Don't be afraid of blackmailing by your colleagues.

For adding you as an accused in the case now, prosecution will have to make amendments in their story of the incident and that should be trustworthy enough supported by witnesses, which is obviously almost impossible now.
