Whenever I keep my right leg folded for some time, and then releases it / or extends it, there is so much pain.In normal condition ,there is no pain ,it is only when I change the position of leg or stepping the stairs/ walking.

You may have a tear in the cartilage of the knee joint causing the symptoms. You will need proper assessment by an orthopaedic surgeon and maybe a scan of the knee to know more. Dr Vinu Raj MBBS MRCS MRCS(Trauma&Orthopaedics) Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
