MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
Heated up quickly? Can you quantify what you mean? What are you doing when using your MBP? Static charge? Are you in a dry carpeted room? When touching metallic objects do you get the same discharge?

Best.
Heated up quikly- I mean to say I just do my normal surfing and office on my mac for few hours and its back gets heated up very fast..
Static charge- During charging when I touch my mac something I can feel that some charge is flowing through it
Pls explain
You can try installing Temperature Monitor (or the lite version) to see what the built-in thermal sensors read for various components of your system: http://www.bresink.com/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
As for the shocks, if they're static "zaps" then that's somewhat unavoidable; however, if you feel a buzzing vibration of sorts then you might try a new electrical socket (specifically on a separate circuit), or try a new power adapter.
