Sadhguru calls Patanjali father of modern yoga. Then is Sadhguru’s teaching of yoga older than the Yoga in the Six Darsana? Is his yoga Astika or Nastika?

Sadhguru is absolutely correct.
The 6 schools Shad-darshana are all “nominally” Vedic, i.e., they’re all āstika as long as they don't deny the authority of the Vedas in metaphysical matters. So it is the non-denial that makes them “orthodox” rather than any direct link.

Many of the basic ideas of all the 6 Schools have their seeds in the Vedas - but have an independent growth, flowering and fruition structure.

The Yoga school of Patañjali is mainly concerned with the practice of meditation and practical self-development - it is methodology and psychology. Patañjali never quotes any Vedic text to support his position.
