Light play sir, during my car service one week ago I come to know that there is a play in my crank shaft pulley & service manager advised me to replace it but due to the bigger cost of part I was not able to replace it. So, sir kindly advice me that is there any risk

A slight amount of in and out play is normal. I would say about 1/16" would be considered normal. If it is more than that, there could be a problem with bearings. If there is up and down play, that isn't good, but you would most likely hear a knocking noise from a worn main bearing.
