Before when I pulled down notification menu there was the slider to adjust the brightness.I made no changes and it's gone now.
it was there in morning then i updated apps from Play Store and while updating apps my phone got restarted and when i powered ON again there were no Screen Brightness Slider.
I tried Enabling and Disabling it from Settings - Display - Notification Panel
but still didn't worked out.

Finally got it but it's very weird,
When I found this issue I was updating my apps from play store, browsing on built-in browser and was watching video on MX player in landscape mode.

I created the same scenario and after closing MX Player, closing browser and disabling Landscape mode I got my brightness adjuster back.

I found it weird so checked it thrice, all 3 times I was able to reproduce the issue.

Now I'm not confirm what causing this issue.
1 - Play Store
2 - Browser
3 - MX Player

Try clear MX Player defaults or don't watch browser based videos on MX Player?

VLC

I had same problem since installing mx player.
But mx player wasn't active at the time. It was vlc player. Phone shut down whilst in horizontal mode playing vlc. So opened vlc put it horizontal then vertical then closed the program. Brightness bar came back instantly. Thanks for the clue.
