I have installed kali Linux or nethunter in termux. After watching video how to install it i finally installed it. Now I'm whenever run apt update or sudo apt update command I'm getting this error:

That is going to be your main problem, you must expect to have problems with bleeding edge distributions they tend not to be very stable

it may be the servers were down due to nightly updates

Did you bother to read the Kali full documentation? It clearly states Kali is for experienced Linux users and not a beginners' distribution, Kali expect users to have enough Knowledge and experience [of Linux and the terminal commands] to find and fix their own problems.

The problem is it can't resolve dns names, that's a pretty straight forward error. If you can't figure that simple thing out you probably won't be able to figure out more complicated problems so you probably shouldn't be using Kali. So look in the direction of your network dns settings.

Kali isn't well liked here but what @f33dm3bits said is true. You should be able to solve this.
look at your network settings. Is IPV6 set to auto if so tell it to ignore it, for now.
