Smriti Irani: The lady needs no introduction. No one could have played the role of Tulsi Virani like she did. In no time, Smriti Irani was a household name for the innocence with which she enacted her character on the small screen. Even though she has switched over from the entertainment industry to politics, we wouldn't mind her making an appearance on TV yet again. Smriti Irani is currently the Textile Minister.readmore

Karan Singh Grover: He is one handsome hunk of the small screen who began his acting career with Balaji Telefilms' Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi on MTV India. However, he became an icon of sorts with serials such as 'Dill Mill Gaye' and 'Qubool Hai'. Karan's recent shift to movies with 'Alone' is making us miss him on television and he surely tops the list for his good looks, chiseled body and acting talent.readmore

Mandira was last seen as an ATS officer in season 1 of 24.readmore

Ram Kapoor: Ram Kapoor played Jai Walia in the hit television serial 'Kasamh Se' and made way into the hearts of the viewers with his charm and effervescence.

Rajeev Khandelwal: Rajeev rose to fame with his role in 'Left Right Left' and became a teen sensation post the show. Also, Kashish and Soojal's (played by Rajeev) chemistry in Ekta Kapoor's 'Kahin Toh Hoga' could still give relationship goals to many.

Surbhi Jyoti: Didn't you love watching her on the much-loved show 'Qubool Hai'? Surbhi created a niche for herself through her beautiful portrayal of Zoya in the long running show on Zee TV. She won many awards for her performance in the serial. Surbhi is also a multi-talented girl as she has spread her wings in regional theatre and films as well.

Sushant Singh Rajput: Bollywood seems to be eyeing the best from the TV industry. And Sushant is an example of that. We have swooned over the actor for his killer looks and superb acting skills in Zee TV's Pavitra Rishta (which also fetched him an award for his performance), but the actor seems to be on a different flight these days. Even though movies interest him now, and we do get to see him playing amazing parts in films like Kai Po Che and Shudh Desi Romance, but we miss seeing him on daily shows as well.readmore
