Hi Sukumar,

We can make one field visible based on other field in the layout by using dynamic forms. If that field is visible then only user can edit it i guess. This should solve the issue.

Please find the below article for the same.

Hi Sukumar,

You can do this by using field dependency also. 

Controlling field: Status__c
dependent field : Priority__c

Steps to create field dependency:
go to the respective object fields
                        --> Custom Fields & Relationships
                              -->click on field Dependencies
                                   --> click on New 
                                          --> select the controlling field & dependent field
                                               --> choose the dependent picklist values for                                                           each controlling field picklist value.

Field depency will be look like below screenshot.
