After that my periods get started by 29th or 30th of December and still its continue. But prior periods days was normally 3. I am little bit scaring. Please help me out to come out of this.

The bleeding will stop in next few days.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The continuous bleeding that you are having is likely to be due to the side effect of unwanted 72 pill. This bleeding will gradually stop on its own in next few days. Your next period can also be delayed by a few days.
It is best to avoid taking any such medicines and wait for the bleeding to stop.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
