A good place to start is the University of Helsinki Java MOOC, it starts from zero knowledge and has lots of practice exercises.

thanks a lot sir.. edit : can u tell me why is it good to start on ur link?

It uses a strongly type language so it teaches good practices, it's based on a widely used language in the industry, it's a bloody good course that teaches the fundamentals of programming very well. If you learn better with videos, I recommend this course, but it's not free.
