He seems to have mastered the art of winning reality shows. After his successful stint at MTV Roadies, the guy from Saharanpur – Ashutosh Kaushik has been declared the winner of Bigg Boss Season 2.

Noted astro numerologist Bhavikk Sangghvi ( who was invited as a guest on Bigg Boss – Aakhri Salaam episode dt. 12th September, 2008 along with Pooja Bedi ) analyses how 'numerology' played a key role in this small town boy's success ?

Ashutosh is born on 2nd October 1979 which makes him a Number 2 in numerology ruled by Moon ( Number 2 ) and Neptune ( Number 7 – Numbers 2 and 7 always go hand in hand ). He is a Libran ( ruled by Numbers 6 and 8 – Venus and Saturn ) and his destiny number adds up to Number 2 ( Moon ) again. ( 2 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 9 + 7 + 9 = 29 = 2 + 9 = 11 = 1 + 1 = 2 ). That means he is ruled by Numbers 2 and 7, not once but twice. Two good !

Numbers 2 and 7 are both soft planets signifying peace, love, harmony, warmth and affection. May be people just loved Ashu's innocence and honesty on the show and must have voted for him in dozens ( count me too – pun intended ).

Technically, Ashutosh entered the Bigg Boss house as an inmate in his 29th year

( before his birthday ) and came out winner in his 30th year ! ( after his birthday ). So, he entered the age of Jupiter ( Number 3 ) – the planet of wealth and prosperity. He was destined to win the booty as he had a 'dhan yog'.

The current year of 2008 which adds up to Number 1 ( 2 + 0 + 0 + 8 = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1 ) has turned out favorable for most Number 1, 2, 4 and 7 persons. Going by this theory too, Ashu qualifies in this study with distinction marks in terms of date & age both.

( His birth date – 2 and Age – 29 ).

The finale episode happened on 22nd Nov, 2008 which added up to Number 4 ( 2 + 2 = 4 ) and the compound number obtained from this date was Number 7. Both are Ashu's strongest numbers.

Being a Libran, Ashu is partly ruled by Number 8 ( Saturn ), and all people ruled by this planet should avoid the color 'Black' and opt for 'Blue' instead. It was a Saturday ( the day of Shani ) and Ashu was rightfully wearing a 'dark blue' velvet coat in the finale episode while his competitor Raja Chaudhary was wearing 'black'.

Going further, Ashu's voting ID was also ASH 11 which further adds up to Number 2.

Needless to say, it was Ashu's game all the way and may be he rightfully deserved to win it too ! Last but not the least, for the curious ones who want to know whether Ashu and Diana Hayden who made a lovey dovey 'couple' during the show are compatible or not ?. My answer is a resounding, yes !
