Bigg Boss 2 in 2008 was the second season of the Indian reality TV programme Bigg Boss. It began airing on 21 August 2008 on Colors. Shilpa Shetty replaced Arshad Warsi as host of the show.[1] Fourteen handpicked housemates entered during the launch and were described 'newsmakers' rather than celebrities, though the majority of the contestants were associated with Bollywood or Indian TV channels and other realities shows.[2] The housemates spent 98 days together in the Bigg Boss house at Lonavala.

On the second day of the show, the British guest on exchange in the house, Jade Goody walked out of the Bigg Boss house due to the revelation that she had developed cancer.[3] On Day 30 of the show, an additional entry to the house was made in the form of Diana Hayden who was the fifteenth contestant of the reality game show.[4]

The season lasted for 98 continuous days in total,[2] ending with the finale on 22 November 2008. Ashutosh Kaushik emerged as the winner going away with an award of Rs. 1 crore. Raja Chaudhary was the runner-up of the show. Rahul Mahajan won the Aveo UVA car as he was selected as the Bada Dilwala of the show.

Housemates, Rahul Mahajan and Sambhavana Sheth returned to compete in Bigg Boss Halla Bol. They became the third and fourth housemate to get evicted on Day 21 and 24 respectively.

Shilpa Shetty became the new host for the series.
