i want to clone opportunity object in custom object and then if i insert new opportunity in opportunity object it should get updated in custom object how to do this dynamically by using trigger

Hi Shiv,
I think there are some apps available on app exchange to clone any standard or custom object. Since it is a one time activity, you can easily do through any of the free apps.
As for creating same record in the new cloned object when a record is created in opportunity object, you can create an after insert trigger something along the lines: 
List<Cloned_object__c> newclonedobj= new list<Cloned_object__c{};
Opportunity[] Opp = [SELECT Id,Name,Stage, CloseDate FROM Opportunity
                      WHERE OpportunityId IN :Trigger.new];
for(Opportunity o: Opp)
{
//Add all the fields that you want to update
Cloned_object__c temp= new Cloned_object__c(Name=o.Name, Stage=o.Stage, CloseDate=o.CloseDate);
newclonedobj.add(temp);
}
insert newclonedobj;

I haven't tested it, but you get the idea.
Thanks.

i want to clone object dynamically in your code you are doing hardcode 
Neha AggrawalNeha Aggrawal
What do you mean by dynamic ? Do you want to give some kind of user input that this is the object in which opportunity record should get cloned.
Please state your requirements clearly.
