Geet missed her family on her wedding. Very natural. My heart goes out for her.
But dear CVs. You had to get Daarji back of all people!
Daarji is worse than Brij. Brij is young and hot blooded. He is misguided by the elders like Daarji himself. Daar ji was the experienced, mature patriarch of the family. And yet, he was the one who condoned the acts like honour killing. He was the one who used to give those atrocious punishments to Geet. Canning and putting burning coal on her hands. He was the one who wasn't even going to let her father have her body for shraaddh, when they thought she was dead.
Morally Daarji is a bigger villain than Brij. Legally he should have been a co-accused in Geet's case against Brij.
For those, who haven't seen the earlier episode, here is a quick overview of Daarji's atrocities and faults
Canning Geet: http://www.startv.in/video/?1_6_Darjee-beats-Geet
Not allowing her father to verify the background of Dev and his family - http://www.startv.in/video/?9_3_Mahinder's-worry
Blames Geet for Dev's desertion even before her father could comfort her - http://www.startv.in/video/?20_4_Geet-is-questioned
Punishment with burning coal - http://www.startv.in/video/?27_2_Darjee's-punishment (Handa khaandaan ki izzat ke saamne teri zindagi bhi koi maayne nahin rakhti)
Orders Brij to kill Geet's - http://www.startv.in/video/?41_4_Darjee's-order
And now he comes, drops a few tears, I-am-sorry-Puttar and he gets the right to do Geet's kanyadaan. 😡 Maan touches his feet? Really? Blah!
This Daarji track is disappointing in other ways too. It takes the cliched route of Indian telly-world. The family members will do all kinds of atrocities against the protagonist and yet keep coming back in the fold with a "we-are-a-family-afterall" ka emotional blackmail. Doing such things takes the zing out of a story like GHSP, which had taken bold approach to things in past.

Yes, I understand that Geet needed her family. And getting her family back would be a good touch. But then get her parents! They were spineless and did not protect their child. I hold it against them. But at least they were shown helpless and were not criminal towards her. If the actors were not available, change the actors.
But Daarji to emotionally support Geet and do her kanyadaan. He doesn't have the f****** right!! 😡
I am disappointed, really disappointed.
