Only a  suggestion   Not sure .  Check this link :https://efloraofindia.com/2011/02/19/commelina-forsskalii/.  
 The winged blue stamen filaments are characteristic of the species.

Thank you very much dear Mahadeswara ji, for the suggestion, it is very close to Commelina forsskalii, but lower petal is clearly visible, growing very rare here and entire plant were died, only visible again in next season, with kind regards, Sam.
