I sent my bitcoin cash to a BTC address by mistake. Please what do i do. Value is $1000 help me and ill pay you $300

Very Experienced people only

How was the BTC address generated?  Was this a deposit address on an exchange?

No, its my btc address on another wallet app

Which wallet app?  Are you able to get at the private keys?

If so, your BCH are probably safe and sound and you'll just need to import/sweep the appropriate private keys back into your Bitcoin Cash wallet (move off any BTC at the same address before you provide the private key to your Bitcoin Cash wallet for safety).

If not then get technical support for the specific app you sent the BCH to (there are plenty of dedicated threads on this forum).  All you need to ask is how to get the private keys.  If you can't get them (because the app provider holds your coins or because the app has an intrinsic multi-signature setup) then you will need the provider specifically for help retrieving your BCH (don't hold your breath).
