First I send my car for servicing but after that my engine cooling went up. I kept losing the radiator water. Now I open my engine the engine oil it looks like brown colour. When I drive I hear water sound.

This is not a good sign, coolant in the oil will quickly destroy the main bearings.

Perform a compression test to determine if head gasket is problem.
