when interrupt occur controller finish its current executing operation. 
It store the address of the next instruction. 
jump to IVT(intrrupt vector table).where add of ISR(int.service routine) stored. 
then it move to corresponding add of interrupt which occured. 
It 'll do the opeartion until RETI instruction . 
After it come back where interrupt occurred by take the add from PC(program counter).
