Star Voice of India 2 is an Indian Television singing competition. Star Voice of India 2 premiered on 18 July 2008. It Stands for Second Season of Gajendra Singh's previous Show Star Voice of India. This season replaces all old judges with three new judges. The two finalists on the show were Ravi Shukla and Saptaparna Chakraborty.

A three-hour grand finale was held at the Andheri Sport's Complex in Mumbai on 21 December, in the presence of prominent singers like Jagjit Singh, Ila Arun and Sonu Nigam. During the course of the finale, the finalists conducted several performances and were often joined by their former rivals, in a spirit of co-operation and unity. A special remembrance video was assembled to remember the late Ishmeet Singh, who was the first winner of Star Voice of India series. In order to sustain his memory, the show presented the first Ishmeet Singh Singing Award to Ronit Sonar of Assam, a contestant on the show.

At the end of the show, Ravi Shukla of Delhi was crowned the winner by guest Sonu Nigam. As part of the winner's package, Ravi was awarded a brand new Chevrolet car along with a check for Rs. 2.5 million. In addition to the bonus gift, Ravi was awarded an exclusive contract with T-Series to launch his first album.
