Hi @Hein_Htet,

You should use [bool queries](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-bool-query.html), take a look in this example:

```
GET _search
{
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "should": [
        {
          "multi_match": {
            "query": "anchovy",
            "fields": [
              "title^4",
              "description^3",
              "shop_name^2",
              "category.name"
            ]
          }
        }
      ],
      "filter": [
        {
          "range": {
            "prices": {
              "retail": {
                "original": {
                  "decimal": {
                    "gte": 20,
                    "lt": 40
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        },
        {
          "term": {
            "shop_slug": "sharkys-dhammazedi.6326"
          }
        },
        {
          "term": {
            "shop_slug": "sharkys-pansodan.3752"
          }
        },
        {
          "geo_distance": {
            "distance": "20000miles",
            "location": {
              "lat": 16.7785335,
              "lon": 96.1437569
            },
            "distance_type": "arc"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
  },
  "from": 0,
  "size": 52
}

```

Cheers,  
LG
