If you install kde over gnome does it overwrite gdm? i mean does gnome work under kdm? I went through a few links under google but none could give me an answer!
Or do the display managers work exclusively as in Gnome by default uses gdm whenever you log into gnome and kde uses kdm whenever i log into KDE?

Yes, everything works under everything else. Just set up a proper Xsessions file for gnome and your KDM will see it and vice versa. This is why standardisation matters. The standard here is the X protocol.
