Actually Gayu, I think after Swara's death, he changed as a person. I think after dealing with 5 years of misery and pain, Swara's death completely unhinged him. He took his anger out on Kalyani, which was ofc wrong, but after Mlksh came back, he stabilized and became very much like no matter what, I won't be mahaan and give up my family, especially Kalyani and Moksh. And now, he's more expressive about his feelings to Kalyani, more romantic, doesn't take anything for granted anymore. Doesn't fall for anyone's fake sympathy ploys.
Even his marriage to Kallu, he can say it was for revenge, but I feel he was just sick of being mahaan and sacrificing himself for others, and turning the other cheek when someone hit him. Old Malhar wouldn't ever take the law in his hands or prioritize his family above duty.
