'what to feed my zebrafish?'!! is the greatest question am facing. Boiled rice grains or farina/sooji is what am feeding them at present. Please guide me and also tell me some house-hold food for these poor fish.

By zebra fish, are you referring to zebra danios? There are cichlids, catfish, and other fish that also have "zebra" in their names.
If danios, I'd try to give them a little more of a variety - and danios aren't too picky about what they eat. Cooked items from the pea/bean family with the skins removed, a small piece of blanched or frozen squash, or a piece of cooked or frozen leafy lettuce (not iceberg). Just avoid anything made with sauces or spices. A small bit of cereal if fine for them, as would be tiny pieces of lean cooked chicken or fish. Danios are omnivores, so they'll eat both plant and animal matter and should get a little of both in their diets.
If you set out containers of water with a few leaves in them, you might get some mosquito or bloodworm larvae. You could also try hatching brine shrimp. Most will happily eat commercial flakes and will nibble down pellets as they soften.
