I am surprised after seeing the features in the picture shown. After searching a little bit, I came to know that it is a conky theme. But now I also am not clear about it, and I don't know how to install it. Help me out!

Conky is a system monitor that can display just about anything, either on your root desktop or in its own window. So, it's not a theme.
You can install it from Ubuntu Software Center:
Or from terminal by running next command:
sudo apt-get install conky-all

The above users mentioned possible ways and I am also mentioning one more possible way . No worry with scripts and all. simply add this PPA & install conky.
Open your terminal and paste these lines one after one
sudo apt-get install conky conky-all
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/noobslab-conky
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install infinity-conky
Thats it , it will install conky and you are ready to run it from the menu. after opening that follow the instructions. simple installation.
