Without makes and model numbers we can't tell what connections you may have missed.
I assume your LG has one HDMI input. TVs don't have HDMI outputs.
Assuming that the home theater has a disc player built in you will need an HDMI input selector with at least 3 inputs.
Connect the Chromecast, Airetel box, and HTS to the switch with HDMI cables.
Connect the switcher to the HDMI input of the TV.
Connect the audio output of the TV to the HTS. Most common connection is optical audio. If the TV doesn't have audio output then you need to get a switch with audio extraction and connect that to the HTS optical input.

Thank you for your reply,
TV is LG 43” LH520T model
Home theater is LHD625.
So as per you suggestion Do i need to buy HDMI selector switch...?,

You need to get an HDMI input selector with audio extraction to expand the number of HDMI inputs on the TV and give you an optical digital audio output for the HTS. This is one example.

You will also need a toslink optical cable and HDMI cables.
