Hello prudhvi9100,
This page can assist with providing steps for cleaning the keyboard, which can help when there's a key that feels different to press than the others: How to clean the keyboard of your MacBook or MacBook Pro - Apple Support
1. Hold your Mac notebook at a 75-degree angle, so it's not quite vertical.
2. Use compressed air to spray the keyboard, or just the affected keys, in a left-to-right motion.
3. Rotate your Mac notebook to its right side and spray the keyboard again, from left to right.
4.Repeat the action, this time with your Mac notebook rotated to its left side.
