Because he considers her as his apni, he cares about her wellbeing, and also because he's Raghav Rao who doesn't take crap from people. His mother and sister are like him in this regard and he'd probably want to see Pallavi get to that stage. He's putting himself in her shoes to see why she feels the way she does, and as his alter ego mentioned, he needs to be prepared to deal with her blind love for the Deshmukhs. I think he will spend a lot more time observing her and listening to her. He knows she has no one to talk to and is willing to be that person, even if it means letting her rant at length. At least the bitterness in her heart will come out and he can see the extent of her suffering. He was quite shocked seeing her that hysterical, it was unexpected and he was unprepared to witness that level of desperation in her.
I agree that she needs to break free of the mental bonds she has with them because she should have her own identity as Pallavi, not Rao or Deshmukh necessarily. He'll need a lot of patience to make her see this eventually.
