Hi niteshkumar,  
That looks like a good question for the Elasticsearch forum. Please include the Elasticsearch version, and Operating System. Maybe also the Java info.

Which then leads to this;

My initial plan was to make the cluster back alive and re-indexing everything. (with my-index-YYYYMM pattern) Since the cluster doesn't easily get back on, I plan to create new cluster and find a way to restore data from the dead cluster. (Not sure this is possible at the moment.)
