According to police, the domestic help Eswari and the driver Venkatesan collided and stole the jewellery kept in a locker at the director's residence.
Aishwarya had lodged a complaint with the Teynampet police recently stating that her ornaments including gold jewellery and diamonds, had been stolen from her flat and named three of her servants as suspects.
On interrogation, police found that Eswari had stolen 100 sovereigns of gold, 30 grams of diamond jewellery and 4 kg of silver.
