Also Pallavi got to know about Esha’s feelings recently, Raghav knows it from start yet doesn’t maintain distance.
Mandar told Pallavi that he wanted her, his wife back, a few times until Raghav clarified the legal angle. Then he did things indirectly from that point on. What else does wanting your wife back mean? Just keeping her as a showpiece? Nope, and that's why Pallavi was worried about the legality of her second marriage until it as clarified. So she kept on helping Mandaar and only when Raghav was angry, upset, etc did she back off. Otherwise, she would have continued to support him and prioritize him, knowing that he wanted to stop her going with Raghav from day 1.
So when Mandar pretended to back off, did his feelings automatically disappear or switch off? Even if he hadn't been evil and had feelings for Pallavi, what's wrong with that? Loving is not the problem as long as you don't act on it and try to break a marriage. As others have said here, Esha's feelings in themselves are not problematic at all. It's because is these feelings that she sacrificed for Raghav to protect him. He would have been dead otherwise. He had every reason to hate Esha until he found out the truth about why she left him. However, Esha has no reason to stop loving him. In fact, after her sacrifice, even if the two hadn't crossed paths, I'd expect that she might have continued loving him till her last breath, a la Veer Zara.
Also I agree with others that just because a friend is in one-sided love with you doesn't mean you stop interacting with them. That's not the default reason for breaking off the friendship. The other person can feel whatever they want but ultimately it's for you to decide what kind of interaction you want with them, including friendship.
