You can send a legal notice to him asking the money and if still no reply is given in 15 days you can file a suit in the civil court having jurisdiction and on the first date of hearing notice will be issued from court to the defendant

You may file Suit for Recovery of Money in appropriate District Court as per the territorial jurisdiction. Documents/ proof would be required for the transactions like bank entry of Rs. 25000 and for the total amount including any other proof to establish friendly loan. You may also, opt for Pre Litigation Mediation in case, you feel it can be settled by interference of a third party who would be a neutral person.
