80 is definitely hot, a cooling pad will help a lot with your issue and they are cheap...

sir can you tell me about applying a thermal paste, as my laptop is 3 yrs old.

you would likely need to disassemble the entire laptop...I would try something like this first http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834992853&cm_re=cooling_pad-_-34-992-853-_-Product
