Being uncomfortable is a different thing, but than again millions of people are uncomfortable regarding homosexual relationship, inter caste relationship, inter ethnic relationship, that doesn't make it wrong.
Plus the main thing it was how the love between Malar and George was not a conventional and impractical one, as it broke all the rules of age gap, language, state, religion and so on. It was a pure free love which broke many boundaries drawn by the society, and that is also the reason it wasn't full filled. Miss Malar wasn't a typical teacher, right from start she was shown as a cosmopolitan and modern person who didn't followed the typical rules and mannerism. Hence her falling in love with George didn't followed the typical pattern which is shown in most movies.
