Dear client
Fir are registered under serious crime. The act defined by you is of very casual nature, this is just verble abuse and you can register complaint under section 504, 506 of Indian Penal Code 1860. Police may give him summon s to remain present before them for inquiry.

No police station can refuse to file an FIR but it is recommended to file an FIR against someone at the jurisdiction of their place of residence or at the place of crime. Since your parents live in pune then they can file in pune or Chiplun.

Sir/Madam,
You have to file an for where the cause of action arises. If he again haraass you'll in Kalwa you can file for a fir in there otherwise jurisdiction will fall with chiplun police station. Nonetheless you can intimate Kalwa police station that such thing has happened and the accused is reciding in your area and we are scared that may do any further mischief. Hope my query has helped you for further help do contact me.
