But still not working.

@jigarp Well, if you show a dialog using exec() then it should block all other dialogs and main window.

Here i've provided my sample code.
You may get an idea from this that how my code is working

Parent Window resolution 0,0,480,272

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
    sibling1Child = new sibling1(this);

    this->move(0,0);            // 0,0,480,272
    sibling1Child->move(0,0);   // 0,0,480,272
}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}

void MainWindow::on_pushButton_pressed()
{
    sibling1Child->show();
}

Sibling 1 resolution 0,0,480,272


sibling1::sibling1(QWidget *parent) :
    QDialog(parent),
    ui(new Ui::sibling1)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
    sibling2Child = new sibling2(this);
    sibling2Child->move(60,56); // 60,56,240,130

}

sibling1::~sibling1()
{
    delete ui;
}


void sibling1::on_pushButton_2_pressed()
{
    sibling2Child->move(60,56);
    sibling2Child->show();
}

void sibling1::on_pushButton_pressed()
{
    this->hide();
}

sibling2 resolution 60,56,240,130

sibling2::sibling2(QWidget *parent) :
    QDialog(parent),
    ui(new Ui::sibling2)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
}

sibling2::~sibling2()
{
    delete ui;
}

void sibling2::on_pushButton_pressed()
{
    this->hide();
}

@jigarp What "background screens"? Do you mean other applications or your own application where you start this dialog?

@jigarp How to use what? exec()?
Check documentation: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdialog.html#exec
This is called a modal dialog: a modal dialog blocks all other windows of the application as long as it is shown.
Using exec() instead of show() you can make your dialog modal.
Like (again) shown in documentation:

void EditorWindow::countWords()
{
    WordCountDialog dialog(this);
    dialog.setWordCount(document().wordCount());
    dialog.exec();
}
