Hi Sudheer,

Override the View link of the record. You can refer below mentioned code:
  
<apex:page standardController = "Account" extensions="ext" action="{!redirect}">
</apex:page>
  
public class ext
{
    private Id recId;
    public ext(apexpages.standardcontroller std)
    {
            recId = std.getId();
    }

    public pagereference redirect()
    {
             //send email coding will come here.
             
            return new pagereference('/'+recId );
    }
}

Hi Sudheer,

For implementing this, you may write a Simple VF page, in the Page's constructor/Action, you send out an email to the Owner.
You then embed this VF page as an "Inline VF Page" in the Record's detail page.

So now, every time record is opened, the VF page will Load, the constructor  called and mail sent:)

Hope this helps!

Pankaj idea is correct one except one thing once you sent the email you need to redirect to detail page again

You just to append nooverride=1 in url 

like this
  
public class ext
{
    private Id recId;
    public ext(apexpages.standardcontroller std)
    {
            recId = std.getId();
    }

    public pagereference redirect()
    {
             //send email coding will come here.
             
            return new pagereference('/'+recId+'?nooverride=1' );
    }
}
