She takes Aryan and his family for granted when they've been her only support apart from Meethi and Dada. All these people she has no empathy for and their priority is at the bottom.
I think, she has made Arpita and Narmada her weapons against Aryan. Here are two women who Aryan cares for, more than the world. And the problem is, while she accuses Aryan of using her, she is using his family against him too. Today, she melted when Narmada and Arpita were talking to her, but when their backs turned, she attacked Aryan with the guilt of disappointing his family.
I seriously hoped that they would show her character to react more than she did when she heard that dialogue, because, maybe just for me, I saw a flash, but it was so immediately gone, and that's just... sloppy.
Aparna is an overly simplified character whose actions, better or worse, can be justified only by the love of her son, and Imlie is stupid for wanting that woman in her life.
