Thank you for reply. It works though my hyperref is old. I missed \PreloadUnicodePage previously.
Thanks & Regards,
Suman

\documentclass{article}
\let\OrgShow\show
\usepackage{ucs}
\AtBeginDocument{\let\show\OrgShow}
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
\PreloadUnicodePage{0}
\PreloadUnicodePage{33}
\usepackage[unicode]{hyperref}[2006/08/01]

Hi
\pdfstringdef\ContentsString{Phrase Code = ^^c2^^a9^^e2^^84^^a2}
\pdfannot{%
  /Subtype/Square%
  /Border[0 0 .1]%
  /C[0 0 1]%

}
\end{document}
