I was thinking about this for the past few days and I came with a few reasons. Feel free to discuss/ add on:
1) Or else there would be no reason for Diya and Ratan to meet. Many fans are watching for Dira scenes. I'm sure the makers would have known that Dira are one of their hit factors. After Diya had revealed the truth, Diya was living at her parents' place. Ratan was living at the palace. They would not have been enough opportunities for Dira to meet frequently. Unless Ratan keeps running back to Diya for help with the business. This would have only made Ratan look immature that he has to keep on seeking Diya's help even after Diya believed that he was ready to take on the business. Plus, Diya's parents and CT would not have been happy and would have tried to stop it.
2) Diya's marriage was inevitable. Diya's parents, especially Sajjan Singh, wanted her to get married pronto as they were worried about society's taunts. Diya, besides wanting to satisfy her parents' wishes, did want to take marriage as her next challenge. Diya always wanted to get married and have a family, but held back by her promise. So, unless Dira's marriage occurred, we would see many episodes worth of match-making scenes, with boys' families visiting Diya and the marriages breaking every time, probably due to Diya's age. This would only have created an image of Diya being unmarriageable, an angle makers probably didn't want to go for.
3) Adding intensity to Dira's relationship. If Dira had fallen in love before marriage, there would be less interference in their journey to love. Due to Ratan's constant declarations that he isn't ready for marriage, CT would have been thrown off initially and would only probably interfere once Dira had halfway fallen in love. With love after marriage, there would be a lot more interference, in the form of family. Plus, Dira would have to learn to adapt and compromise. Moreover, this allows more room for the makers to explore the fusion of 2 different mentalities and personalities. All these conflicts would only add more intensity to Dira's relationship.
4) Likely interference by the channel. I always got this feeling as the malkin track was bringing them TRPs. Considering that, I always thought that the channel and the makers would have milked it till the TRPs started dropping. Considering the rush and the limited bank of episodes, there was clearly a change in track halfway somewhere. Channel probably wanted Dira's marriage to happen soon as there is a new, similar Zee TV. And from what I heard, that couple is halfway in love, and the channel probably wanted Dira's marriage to occur first. First mover advantage and more promo for the show and channel. Look at all the fuss by IF.
This were all the reasons I could think of. Don't know if they make sense so feel free to critique all you want! 😆
