Hi finally i got answer for my question.

objDialogueWindow = objDialogue.getWindow();
objDialog.setOnShowListener(new OnShowListener() {

                @Override
                public void onShow(DialogInterface dialog) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                    objDialogWindow.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE);
                    objDialogWindow.setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_ALT_FOCUSABLE_IM, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_ALT_FOCUSABLE_IM);
                }
            });

This will solve my problem. Window flag: invert the state of FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE with respect to how this window interacts with the current method. That is, if FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE is set and this flag is set, then the window will behave as if it needs to interact with the input method and thus be placed behind/away from it; if FLAG_NOT_FOCUSABLE is not set and this flag is set, then the window will behave as if it doesn't need to interact with the input method and can be placed to use more space and cover the input method. Please refer the explanation in http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/WindowManager.LayoutParams.html#FLAG_ALT_FOCUSABLE_IM

When you open a dialog from the activity which has edittext, softkeyboard will automatically hide as on moving to dialog edittext looses the focus. Showing softkeyboard along with dialog won't be possible, you need to add the content of your dialog in the activity itself where edittext is there. And you can play with the visibility of the view containing dialog contents whenever you want your dialog to appear and disappear.
