Imagine he is a good guy and Dev finds out Ishwari sent the alliance, Ishwari can get away with the fact that she did it out of good will. Ishwari would say Sona has done a lot to me and so, I want her to move on and hence, found the best match for her. However, if the guys is bad and Dev comes to know that Ishwari sent this rishta, then there is more room for Ishwari's character to fall in front of Dev. It might be the first step towards bringing Ishwari down from "GOD", which is very much needed if Dev and Sona are to unite. There could be a kathri thing, which may come later to bring down Ishwari's character down further. But, that's not about Sona-Dev. It may come and haunt her post their marriage? so that Sona would be his side helping him cope up with whatever that secret was.
Sona and Ishwari are the most imp people in Dev's life and I think he can't tolerate any bad happening to either of them. So, the love for Sona will make him start hating Ishwari if and only if Ritwik is bad character and the point being she brought the rishta will hold some value. Otherwise, Ishwari can still get away in Dev's eyes, is what I think.
I saw many people telling Ritwik should be good character and Dev should genuinely earn Sona. I agree with that and I think the jouno issue is certainly going to do more damage to their equation. So, even if Ritwik is bad and Dev tries to stop the marriage, he will still need to do whatever needed to earn Sona's broken heart. Ritwik being bad would only bring Dev out of Ishwari's clutches. I could be completely wrong on this, you never what CVs have in store for us.
Added point: I think Ritwik is probably involved in some corruption, which is why he is not getting job. Sona's dad is dead against corruption so that could lead to stopping of this marriage
ps: I am new to this forum. This is my first topic here. I just recently started watching this serial (in fact, after dev-sona breakup 😆)
