Hi Jignesh,
 Unfortunately that does not sound good.  It sounds like he has some sort of intestinal blockage.  Many people recommend trying to get your fish to eat some thawed frozen peas for this problem. It has a way of clearing the intestine.  Some people use epsom salts, but I have never tried that.
