hi Sateesh
you got this error because 
controller and helper javaScript code always wrap in parentheses and curly braces like  ({....code here })

wrap your code inside it 
({
    edit: function(component, event, helper) {
    var editRecordEvent = $A.get("e.force:editRecord");
    editRecordEvent.setParams({ "recordId": component.get("v.contact.Id") }); 
    editRecordEvent.fire(); 
    }
})

and save it 
if it helps you mark it best answer so it make proper solution for others 
Thanks
