When Ani read J's mom letter, the predominant thought on his mind was that he can't deny J's responsibility, even after being a so called fake husband.
It was just the 'Jimmedari' emotion that he brought J home with. His only intenstion was to support J until she can support herself. However, as time passed, the emotion related to being J's husband started making its road to Ani's heart. His conscious mind was, as Choton said was unaware of it. Hence, according him, he was just genuinely supporting J, taking care of her as a good human being.
First, he was controlling J, as he knew that she is not a world smart, is not able to set the goals right. However, with time, he started controlling J as husband as well. He felt that he can enter J's room anytime he wants. He never liked idea of J being close to another man. He felt he has haq over J, but he till now never felt J has haq over him and he belongs to J. He comfortably gets close to Arshi. When he will start feeling that Arshi is another woman for him, that is when there will be his full transformation.
Before that there are too many hurdles. He has never thought of making his marriage with J a reality. Everytime in his dreams what he wants is J around him in the house but never in his room. Also, in his kind, J respects him, but is not sure if she loves him. Rather, he feels that she loves someone else. If true, then there is no meaning of breaking his relationship with Arshi, with whom he is committed.
It will be the forthcoming struggles that will help him transform completely into J's husband that he is.
