I want to know how can i get the sectors details related to a single file by giving it's inode number or something.

You can use an ioctl call with parameter FS_IOC_FIEMAP to get its extent map.
This isn't supported by all file system, but it works with ext4 in any case.
Taking a look at the filefrag source code should help getting to know how to use the calls.
