Jo actually this new guy looks very dubious to me.
However one think if Taklu repreminds raj and his family for harbouring a KK (Kranti) then dont you think that his hatred for kranti will increase. In that case he will not blame britishers at all, but Kranti.
As she has entered in house by force and he and his whole family knows about it but not that takla. Complicated isnt it.
Actually I feel that the thought of causing harm to kranti or some harm coming her way is going to jolt raj as it is he is feeling guilty on giving her bad days.
If you recall after seeing her wounds he does think to himself the he never wanted to treat her badly and he always thought all her wounds to be his victories. And for the firt time he realised the depth of her suffering and helplessness.
I think he will come around very soon this anger is momentry and soon things are going to change. Me such a hopeful man mera kya hoga.
