Bollywood stars have long used Karan Johar's talk show Koffee With Karan as a safe space to open up about their personal lives, exchange stories, and have frank discussions. The finale episode of this season will be dropped at midnight on Disney+ Hotstar. The eighth season only had 12 episodes, and several Bollywood stars who were regulars were often missed on the couch. This definitely comes as a surprise!Season 8's lack of these celebrities left fans wanting to see more of them. Let's take a look at the seven celebrities who were shockingly conspicuous by their absence this season.Check it out in detail below:Aamir Khan
Reports were making the rounds that Aamir Khan would be appearing on the couch once again with Kiran Rao, his ex-wife. However, it seems like the news has turned out to be untrue. The superstar's first appearance was with her, and then he also graced the couch with his Dangal co-stars, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra. Aamir promoted Thugs of Hindostan in a solo appearance, and in the last season, he came with Kareena Kapoor Khan, his Laal Singh Chaddha co-star.ALSO READ: Koffee With Karan 8 - After losing out on hamper to Neetu Kapoor, Zeenat Aman says 'next time the win is...'Akshay Kumar
Katrina Kaif has also featured on the talk show multiple times. She appeared with Lara Dutta Bhupathi for the first time and with Anushka Sharma after skipping a couple of seasons. Katrina then went on to appear with Varun Dhawan on the show. Her last appearance was in the previous season with Phone Bhoot co-actors Ishaan Khatter and Siddhant Chaturvedi. She is a hot favourite on the show, with all her honesty and candidness.Kriti Sanon
Kriti Sanon has been a part of Koffee With Karan twice. She first appeared with Kartik Aaryan during the promotions for Luka Chuppi. Her last appearance was alongside her first co-star, Tiger Shroff. Well, we wonder, how didn't Kriti make it to the couch this time?Shahid Kapoor
Since Koffee With Karan began, this is the first time Shahid Kapoor has had a no-show. Yes, the actor has appeared seven times on the talk show, making him a veteran. The actor appeared with Esha Deol, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Sonakshi Sinha, his wife Mira Rajput Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter, and Kiara Advani. It's a shocker, indeed!Sonam Kapoor
Sonam Kapoor has also been a regular on the Koffee With Karan couch, including when she was pregnant last season. She appeared on the couch with Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, her siblings Rhea Kapoor and Harshvardhan Kapoor, and Arjun Kapoor. Why wasn't Sonam seen on the couch this time?Tiger Shroff
Tiger Shroff made his debut on the show in the fifth season, appearing alongside his father and actor Jackie Shroff. The action star then appeared with his Student of the Year 2 co-actors, Ananya Panday and Tara Sutaria. Tiger last appeared on the couch with Kriti Sanon. It would have been interesting if he had appeared with Akshay Kumar, as they are working together in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan.ALSO READ: Karan Johar makes a splash on Fabricare’s ‘manifestation couch’, teases fans with Koffee With Karan Season 8 finaleShare
