Hi Abhinav - You can able to do that using actionsupport and rendered functionality in visualforce page.
Check the below code for the example 
<apex:pageBlock id="pb1">
<apex:pageBlockSection>         
<apex:actionRegion >               
  <apex:inputField id="f1" value="{!Object.picklistfieldapiname1}" required="true" >
     <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="pb1" />
  </apex:inputField>
</apex:actionRegion>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
<!-- This section will be displayed only if the picklist field value is set to Other -->
<apex:pageBlockSection id="pbs1" rendered="true">
 <apex:inputField id="f2" value="{!Object.Fieldtobedisplayed1}" rendered="{!IF(Object.picklistfieldapiname1 ='Other' ,true,false)}"/>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
<!-- End of re-render section -->
</apex:PageBlock>
Thanks,
Karanraj
