If your marriage has not taken place due to the girls parents not agreeing to your marriage, how has the girl gone ahead and filed the dowry case, a case for demand of dowry will arise only if the boy marries the girl and continues to demand dowry, in your case the marriage itself was not completed, therefore there is no question of dowry.
If the complaint has been filed, file 482 petition before the High court and get the complaint quashed.
