Though they did manage to create huge impact on their fans with their roles once, but what we are left with is a little conversation of them once in a while, and for some even that doesn't exist. Here's a look at actors who are nowhere to be seen now.

Kiran Kumar, Swapnil Joshi, Shahbaz Khan: TV actors who have gone missing

Kiran Kumar: One of the most villainous small screen characters, Kiran Kumar was loved for the role of AOC Suraj Singh on Star Plus' Saara Akaash. He did not only reign the small screen but has played antagonist in many hit Bollywood films as well. It has been long since we last saw him on screen. Although there is good news for his fans as the actor will be making a comeback on screen.
