Thanks for the answer,

actually i am trying to run commands from python script,

more over if the issue is with adbd, then even though i keep shell open, 
restart adb server on pc, nothing is working,

only solution is remove usb cable, uncheck and check usb debugging option 
on android device, connect usb cable again.(But i dont want to do it :-))

question which is tickling my mind is why device is going to offline?
