Fateh holding her close, intimate is a sign of not letting your life slip away but that also means that he is thinking that he is losing her to someone else. He is most likely to step aside but that will happen in phases and not immediate. He has realised that there is an emotional space created between him and Tejo cause of his EMA and Angad has created his own place in his absence and that is hurting him. It is painful for him to watch Tejo emotionally leaning onto Angad instead of him. He is not bothered by physical proximity but by comfort. Now, we will get lots of scene where Tejo is happy, comfortable and laughing around Angad. Fateh will overhear Rupi saying to someone how Angad is right choice for Tejo and not Fateh, KSV will say to him how they are grateful to Angad for helping them in their hour of need, he don't have job on top of that financial burden, unsecured future, though he love Tejo and she loves him back but him causing her pain will push him back into the guilt of not been the right guy for Tejo. He will start stepping aside.
@bold. This is why there's a disagreement between us I think.
It might be that we look at the FT hug and the TA hug as something physical and while we acknowledge the emotional comfort, we're conflicted.
Might have been discussed already. Sorry. I just came on so adding my two cents.
