Hi Vishal,

The kind of view you want to design is very basic,yet very useful in most of the application. And it is simple too.
As you know that layouts are designed in xml file..
I will provide the guideline for making the view..

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
	android:layout_width="fill_parent"
	android:layout_height="wrap_content"
	android:orientation="horizontal"
	android:gravity="center"
	android:padding="5dip"
	>
	<ImageView
   		android:layout_width="60dip"
   		android:layout_height="60dip"
   		android:scaleType="fitXY"
                android:src="@drawable/icon"/>
   	<LinearLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
   		android:layout_weight="1"
   		android:orientation="vertical">	
		<TextView
			android:layout_width="wrap_content"
			android:layout_height="wrap_content"
			android:text="Line 1"
			android:gravity="left"
			android:textStyle="bold"
			android:paddingLeft="10dip"
		/>
		<TextView android:id="@+id/txt_author_name"
			android:layout_width="wrap_content"
			android:layout_height="wrap_content"
			android:text="Line 2"
			android:gravity="left"
			android:paddingLeft="10dip"
		/>
	</LinearLayout>	
</LinearLayout>
