No. It seem to be so only because Aphrodite's origin is very close to Lakshmi's, the Hindu goddess of love (and wealth, fortune, and wisdom...basically what happen when you give brain to Aphrodite and make her regal as well). Both Apsara and Lakshmi emerged from the ocean as result of Churning of the Ocean of Milk.

That's most likely mean Eros is composition of various love goddess, Aphrodite, Lakshmi, Freyja and Shub Niggurath.
