Bhima II (r. 1178–1240), also known as Bhola Bhima, was an Indian king from the Chaulukya (Solanki) dynasty who ruled present-day Gujarat and other territories. During his reign, the dynasty's power declined greatly as a result of rebellions by the feudatories as well as external invasions by the Ghurids, the Paramaras, and the Yadavas of Devagiri. The kingdom, however, was saved by his generals Arnoraja, Lavanaprasada and Viradhavala, whose family established the Vaghela dynasty.
