Hi Jairaj, This is exactly what the 'trace' and python macro functions are for. Take a look in the Tools menu, and choose Start Trace. If you check the 'show incremental trace' button you can see it's recording a python script as you take actions in the GUI. When you've completed your steps, you can choose 'save as python macro' and you'll get a button that can repeat the steps.
To go more in-depth, look for information on python scripting in Paraview!
