Murtu thought it was his wife who was hugging him coz it is THEIR BEDROOM. So him reciprocating the hug is not wrong as he was only having meerub in his mind. His intentions were good. 
About not understanding who touched him - he was yearning for meerub's love all this time. When she came back, he must have gotten his hopes high. So when he was hugged, he was lost in it to even notice it was not his wife. 
In E12, after meerub hugs him in the dark, he gets his hopes high thinking that he would be allowed to sit on the bed. His hope never falters about meerub loving him. So that's why he says "Mujhe pata tha ki tum ek din mere kareeb aaogi" in this promo.
Who in the right mind would enter a room of a couple at night without their permission and then hug the man. This was an unexpected move by Haya. Murtu would have never anticipated something like this. Here he is the victim 
According to him, he has set his boundaries with her but for us viewers, it looks like, it's not harsh enough to stop Haya. So he will learn a lesson after this and hopefully be more strict with Haya.
