Put a link button in grid view and give its

C#

commandname="ChangeColor" commandgrgumen=<%EVal("sno") text="Change"

Sno is serial number of the table starts from zero

C#

int index= int.Parse(e.CommandArgument.ToString());

in gridviewcommand event write below

C#

if(e.commandName=="CahngeColor")
{  
   griview1.rows[index].backcolor= System.Drawing.Color.Red;
}

griview1.rows[index].CssClass can also be used, for more customization

commandname="ChangeColor" commandgrgumen=<%EVal("sno") text="Change"

sno is a column in the table it should start from zero. you should insert the sno in the table from zero why because gridview row index starts from zero. To find out on which row you click, this sno will useful.
for example
if you click on 1st row index will come as 1 (this 1 will come from database table) like this
all rows

griview1.rows[2]backcolor=System.Drawing.Color.Red;

Above code is not good because if you click on any row 2nd row color only will be changed.
