Solution 2

try like this..

XML

<asp:GridView id="girdview" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" OnRowDataBound="girdview_RowDataBound">
            <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="Status" HeaderText="Status" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="others" HeaderText="others" />
            </Columns>

        </asp:GridView>

C#

protected void girdview_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
       {
           int statuscolumnIndex = 0; // check in your gridview
           if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
           {
               string status = DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "Status").ToString();
               if (status == "Unactive")
                   e.Row.Cells[statuscolumnIndex].Style["background-color"] = "Red";

           }
       }

Just to alert you that there is no such word like "Unactive", rather it is "Inactive".

For your issue, you can follow Karthik's Solution.
