here is my code:

Create a custom UITableViewCell. Refer this link.

Say you have a UIButton by the name of displayButton, you can do something like this:

Inside your - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath, after you create your cell,

[cell.dislayButton addTarget: self
                             action: @selector(replyButtonPressed:withEvent:)
                   forControlEvents: UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

And the create the method like so in your ViewController:

- (void) replyButtonPressed: (id) sender withEvent: (UIEvent *) event
{
    UITouch * touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
    CGPoint location = [touch locationInView: self.tableView];
    NSIndexPath * indexPath = [self.tableView indexPathForRowAtPoint: location];
}
