You can use Camera.ScreenToWorldPoint to accomplish that. The Vector3 that you use in the call to ScreenToWorldPoint will be the screen pixel location in X,Y (0,0 at bottom left) and the Z will be distance from the camera. See reference.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class ObjectInFrontOfCamera : MonoBehaviour {
	
	public GameObject objectTarget;
	public Vector3 screenPosition = new Vector3(0,0,20);
	
	// Use this for initialization
	void Start () {
		
		if(objectTarget != null)
	{
		objectTarget.transform.position = camera.ScreenToWorldPoint(screenPosition);
	}
	
	}
}

ok sir.. but if i am having one empty parent Object which z position is -10.. Under that parent object i am having three child.. and all that child is having different z distance.. so in position which value do i need to keep ?? or any other idea is there for same??

Making the object a child of the main camera, and then position it should work.

You might be interested in nGUI or a similar solution. There is a free version, but to publish game it does cost some money.
