A heated argument between the couple turned violent with the woman allegedly slashing her husband's fingers with a knife in their apartment, media reports said.
The incident took place in Bengaluru, India's IT capital, recently.
Both husband and wife have lodged complaints against each other. The police have reportedly summoned their parents to help smooth over the situation.
Sunitha Singh and Chandrakanth Singh are from Bihar, and have been married for seven years. They relocated to the city three years ago and were working for different IT firms. Sunitha recently quit her job and was on a break at home.
According to local reports, Chandrakanth argued several times about Sunitha's frequent chats with friends for which she never cared. Once when she was busy in kitchen, Chandrakanth checked her mobile phone and saw messages addressing her 'dear' and 'darling' from the other side. 
Chandrakanth followed Sunitha and attempted to hit her. Before the shocked husband reacted, his wife came down with a kitchen knife and chopped three of his fingers. 
He rushed to a private hospital and later filed a case against her for domestic violence.
