Post what you have got so far and someone will help you with any detailed questions you may have.

PLEASE tell if someone has some idea as overridding is basically a concept of inheritance which basically refers to different implementations of the same method in the hierarchy.so what could be the demerits??

Well, what happens if your expecting a function to do something in particular? How would overriding effect that?
