Hi surya,
You can use disabled=true in your apex tag. 
1)
<apex:commandButton value="Processing..." status="newStatus" disabled="true"/> >

2) you can also use javascript for disablibg button.

Use a simple Javascript function for disabling buttons. Assign some extra css class to the pageBlock button and disable/enable only these buttons. If one of these buttons is clicked - disable the both. When the action is complete - enable both buttons again:

<script> function blockReleaseBtns(disable){
  var btns = document.getElementsByClassName('saveBtnClass');
   for(var i = 0; i < btns.length; i++){
     if(disable){
        btns[i].disabled = 'disabled';
        btns[i].className = 'saveBtnClass btnDisabled';
}
    else {
        btns[i].disabled = ''; btns[i].className = 'saveBtnClass btn'; }
   }
}
</script>
<apex:pageBlock>
    <apex:pageBlockButtons>
    <apex:commandButton value="Save" reRender="pgBlockMsgs" status="saveStatus" styleClass="saveBtnClass" onclick="blockReleaseBtns(true);" oncomplete="blockReleaseBtns(false);"/>
<apex:actionStatus id="saveStatus">
     <apex:facet name="start">
      <apex:image value="/img/loading.gif" style="height:20px;"/>
</apex:facet>
   </apex:actionStatus>
  </apex:pageBlockButtons>
  </apex:pageBlock>

Let me knows if its helps you.
