Hi Murali, what you want to do is basically to connect two networks with totally overlapped address ranges. At first you need NAT in order to separate both networks with the same IP address space. To do this, you need virtual address spaces which you'll use to address your remote 10.10.1.0/24 addresses from your own 10.10.1.0/24 domain. That could be for example 20.10.1.0/24. The same must be done in the opposite way, say 30.10.1.0/24 is used from the remote host to contact one of your local hosts. The address conversion is done by NAT. You must do both inside and outside NAT. Cisco's NAT converts also IP addresses in DNS replies, so your DNS should work also. Actually this is a longer story, which I can't describe here in detail. You can contact me if you want to get more information.
BTW. This scenario needs two routers for connectivity, because you can't connect two 10.10.1.0 networks to only one router.
