Dear Mayur, ... the flower you have posted is distinctly different from what I have come to believe as *C. suffruticosa* Please take a look at http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Commelina%20suffruticosa&w=91314344%40N00
Please, of course, cannot reason out the ID botanically; long time ago, yourself and Satish Pardeshi ji had helped me with the ID. Here it is: http://www.flowersofindia.net/catalog/slides/Shrubby%20Dayflower.html Regards.
