Please help me out,, as to how can i achieve the same,, as i am having Broadband internet connection, which comes wirelessly to my laptop through a router/modem..

Answer 1

Very few mobile devices are able to connect to an internet connection over bluetooth. What is your mobile device?

Answer 2

Bluetooth connections are usually used for sending files, not connecting to the internet. Check if your phone has any options for connecting to the internet via Bluetooth; if you can't find any, there's no way to access the internet via Bluetooth on your phone.

Sorry to say this, but I wouldn't put my hopes up. I've looked for a solution similar to this on my phone (Sony Ericsson w810i), but it just wasn't possible.
