Somehow I find Aasta and Shaan to be completely natural and not dramatic. In the back story, Aasta might have fought for Shaurya's custody and lost it because of SWs clout. Once you lose legal custody then there is nothing she can do. It happened close to 25 years back and it was plenty of time for everyone to move on. Aasta might have fought for her son at that time. She clearly says Shaurya was "snatched from her" in one of the prev episodes.
As to her selfishness, I really standby her when Aasta says, It's a decision she took for her self-respect. There are plenty of people who diverse because of compatibility issues, domestic violence, and other issues. It's not necessary to cling on to a marriage and live a futile life just because you have a child. If you have to blame someone for Shaurya's condition it should be Shaan who took Shaurya's responsibility during separation and was careless in taking care of his son. He had his own wounds to deal with at that time. And anyway as per his dialog, he agrees that it's his fault that Shaurya turned this way.
Shaurya had definitely issues. He seems like an ignored kid who acts out on others. And definitely whatever happened in the past is not his past. But in one of the past episodes, he rudely dismissed Aasta when she tried to talk to him. He also insulted her by asking her to sign some documents. During admission time he tried to throw Aasta out by calling security. He behaved rudely and Shaan has to warn him to be within his limits. Do you want Aasta to get humiliated even further by talking to Shaurya again?
I felt she is a woman to be respected. I hope Shaurya's character evolves to understand his mother and be proud of her and her achievements.
