Will we get our our btc if it is taking too long to get a confirmation? Because i was refunded. So i just want to know whether it is because of Blockchain.info wallet or is it normal?

In simple terms, yes. The network will just forget about this transaction and the coins will not be spent at all. It is normal, as transaction are usually dropped out of mempool after a period of time which it is unconfirmed. Blockchain.info wallet typically stop broadcast after sometime, so the coins will return to the wallet. If the transaction is continuously broadcasted, it will not be returned to your wallet until it stops broadcasting, depending on your client.

Thanks! So what is the estimate time of stopping broadcast? 2 days? OR does this depend on the transaction?

This depends on your client, some stops broadcasting after a while and some continues for longer periods. It doesn't depend on transaction as all transaction is broadcasted the same way.
