Rudra is a soldier. He may be heartless but he hasn't killed innocent people. He attacked the marriage procession only after he had already seen guns in their trunks. And remember, he opened fire only in retaliation. It was the so called baraatis who opened fire .
He knew for sure that Tejawat was and is smuggling weapons in the guise of marriage. He had already extracted the confession from one of Tejawat's accomplices. Rudra is trying to nail tejawat and stop this trafficking of young nubile girls. But Tejawat being powerful, Rudra needs proof.
It just so happens that Paro is innocent. But Rudra doesn't know it. He is aware that tejawat is trying to kill Paro. This strengthens his conviction that she definitely knows something, else why would tejawat try to kill her.
Paro however is an innocent victim of all this. Rudra no doubt is harsh, but he looks at Paro as a desh drohi whose loyalties lie with tejawat and not her mitti. Did he not try to tell paro abt the fate of her sister ? Did she listen ?
So one cant really blame Rudra. Besides he is doing his best to protect Paro. He forbade her from interacting with that badmash son of Mohini. He also tells het not to venture out in front of the majdoors. He knows she is a beautiful girl, so is trying his best to protect her even though he thinks she is a traitor. have you forgotten how he tended to her bruised feet ?
And don't forget , he protected her from the goons in the first instance.
