Answer 1

Finally I got solution for my problem, I am sharing my solution for others too. Firstly I created a method inside my html scala template file.

@activeLink(currentPath:String) = @{
if(request.path.equals(currentPath)) "active"
}

Now need to call the above method inside class attribute of anchor tag.

<ul class="nav nav-list">
 <li class="@activeLink("/menu1")"><a href="/menu1">Menu1</a></li>
 <li class="@activeLink("/menu2")"><a href="/menu2">Menu2</a></li>
 <li class="@activeLink("/menu3")"><a href="/menu3">Menu3</a></li>
</ul>

Here is my final solution, If some one has another solution or approaching different way for the same so please share those also.
