Sanjay Dutt has been released from Pune's Yerwada Jail, and he was welcomed whole-heartedly with family, fans and the media.

The actor's home in the posh Bandra area, located in the western suburb of Mumbai, was decorated with flowers, and saw large crowds at the gates.

With wife Maanyata by his side, Dutt waved to the crowds, as he made his way home.

A look at the pictures.
