How to set the background of a column for specific row to different color

I am populating the GridView from code-behind. The Due Date (Format: mm-dd-yyyy) is displayed for each row entry.

How can I modify the above so I can add the following: <asp:BoundField HeaderStyle-Width="1%" HeaderText="" ItemStyle-CssClass="taskTableColumn" /> (another column) between asp:TemplateField and asp:HyperLinkField where it will see if today is past the due date from the Due Date column. If it is past the due date, set the background to #C000000 of that columns for that row.

You can try this, definitely you need to change conditions

protected void RowDataBound(Object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
//Check if it is not header or footer row
    if(e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
    {
        if(e.Row.RowIndex == 0)
             e.Row.Cells[0].BackColor = Color.Red;
        if(e.Row.RowIndex == 1)
 e.Row.Cells[0].BackColor = Color.Green;
    }
}
