I have only just seen the film, as it formed part of an assessment for university; however, I don't agree with your point of Hasan being killed by the Sikh family which he was helping.
How could they have killed him when they were in hiding waiting on him to let them know when they would be leaving for India.
He was trusted by the family.
The only person likely to have killed him, was in fact Dil Navaz. The murder seems to also have been done out of pure revenge and had nothing to do with the politics of the time. I believe that they were both Muslim.
He killed Hasan because he was jealous of him and because he had been hurt by Shanta, he went after her, just as the mob of Muslim men did to find out where she was hiding.
