Mumbai, Apr 21 (PTI) A 41-year-old television actor has filed a complaint against a maid he hired from an online platform for allegedly stealing foreign currency of Rs 5 lakh along with gold and diamond ornaments valued at over Rs 2 lakh from his residence in Mumbai’s Khar area, police said.
In his complaint, actor Vipul Roy said he hired the services of one Dipali Kharwa as she had previously done household work several times at his house.
