Hello Deepakaa,
For your first question, I would say some brightening would help this photo a great deal. It's hugely underexposed. Maybe throw in a touch of saturation as well to give the distant buildings a little pop.

Question two...I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I see reflections in the water...
 
Thanks.
By reflection i mean to see the mirror image of all the buildings on the water surface...i have seen some fabulous images with water reflections on the net (for example search by "water reflection photography" in google images)...i dont understand if we can produce such kind of reflections in camera or there are achieved in post processing....in my above image if i want to achieve the clear reflection of building on the water, can i do it in post processing, if yes how....i had to do it in camera what are the tricks ??
 
do it at night when the lights in the buildings are all lit. Make sure you use a tripod or put the camera on a stable surface.
 
Also, from this vantage point, the buildings are not close or tall enough. You probably want to shoot it from lower to get more reflection.
