Is there any solution for this..?

Your images do not show a problem.  The masked content displayed in the blue area of your second image would be correct.  Only what is behind the small masked area will be shown, but that does not affect the dimensions of the movieclip being masked.  The movieclip will remain the full size it is.

Can you show a screenshot of your problem?  How did you apply the mask?
