Any suggestion help..

You want to use "Policy based Routing".

( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Policy_based_routing )

The principle is to use iptables to set a numeric  mark (-j MARK) on packets
according to you criteria (tcp destination port number, ...) and to use a
different routing tables which are selected according to this packet-marks.

Best,
