Hi Vijay.

Please follow below steps to achieve this requirement.
Go to Contact Fields.
Edit the Standard Field - Account Name.
Click on "Show Filter Settings".
Give a Filter Criteria as per your requirement. Example: In "Field" select your Status Field and Select "equals" in "Operator" and give your value in last box i.e., "Active" as per your requirement.
Make sure you enable this filter.
Please find attached Screeshot of same.

Let us know if that helps you.

Best Regards,

Add a Lookup Filter to the "Account Name" standard field in the Contact object. In Setup, go to the Contact object's fields, click "Account Name", then click "Edit". Click "Show Filter Settings". For the Filter Criteria, enter your status field in the "Field" box, "equals" in the Operator box and "Active" in the last box (or whatever value indicates the active status). That should limit the lookup to only those accounts that match your lookup criteria.
