I installed a package using apt-get install package-name the package works perfectly fine.. Now is there anyway i can get all the packages dependencies and the package itself inside a single directory which i can write to install the package at a place where an internet connection is not available.

Grab the deb files for the package. Find out its dependencies using synaptic menus or your favorite command-line tool (that means, I don't know how but I'm sure it's possible). Grab the dependency debs as well.

Grab = find them on the debian web site.

I don't know what the single directory requirement is for, but I won't ask as that results in people jumping down my throat.
