An Hindu wife always has the right of maintenance under section 24 of Hindu Marriage Act. You can also file divorce on the grounds of Cruelty or the other grounds available for divorce. As interim you can file file maintenance . If your husband is not providing maintenance he will loose the chance to contest the divorce petition filed by you. you need not need to invoke section 125 of Cr.P.C. when you have remedy under Hindu Marriage Act.

If you get divorced by mutual consent, you cannot claim maintenance under sec 125 crpc later. So if you want some financial security from your husband, then you must negotiate with your husband and can enter a compromise memo before getting divorce by mutual consent.

According to Sec 125 (4) CrPC , after getting a divorce decree by mutual consent you may claim maintenance from your ex husband , if you remain unmarried and if you are unable to maintain yourself . Your prayer in the Divorce on mutual consent is an important factor.
