Arnab Goswami invites Sanjay Dutt to appear on Newshour following his release. If he does, it means going from one punishment to another

Sanjay Dutt released early for his 'good behavior' and if he continues this for next 2 month, the families of blast victims could be jailed.

It seems, Sanjay Dutt is confusing his Jail release with his Movie release. "Today i want to thank............."

Also read - Prison may not have changed Sanjay Dutt, but who cares?
Jailed for illegally possessing an AK-47 assault rifle in the March 1993 Mumbai serial blasts, Sanjay Dutt will walk a free man today. By the time Dutt was finally sentenced to five years imprisonment in 2013 the case had dragged on for exactly 20 years and he had already spent 18 months in prison as an undertrial.
The shadow that had loomed over him for two decades, something that Dutt had perhaps become accustomed to, will finally disappear forever when he walks out of the Yerwada prison, and a new Sanjay Dutt would return to the world that where things would be just the way he left them.
