I have recently upgraded elk stack from 7.8.1  
Elasticsearch is currently in 7.8.1 version  
I have tried to restart kibana.  
systemctl restart kibana  
It shows it is active but when I try to browse from web, the login page keeps on loading but could not appear login portal.

I think there is looping issue from status code 302 to 200 and again 302 to 200.... How can I remove this error ?

Can you share your kibana.yml file? Maybe that's a configuration issue.  
Another possible cause is you have a corrupted session. Try deleting all cookies and cache from your browser.
