Answer 1

You are getting current date in wrong format,

Just change your code like

[
     'attribute' => 'duedate',
     'contentOptions' => function ($model, $key, $index, $column) {
       $time = new \DateTime('now');
       $today = $time->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
       return ['style' => 'background-color:' 
                    . (strtotime($model->duedate) < strtotime($today) ? 'red' : 'white')];
     },
],
