Amit,
The File class has a constructor which takes both parent, and child as args.
Example :
public File(String parent, String child)
File f = new File("d:\\amit","test.txt");
f.createNewFile() will create a test.txt file in d:\amit dir I think. Please give it a try!

From Java Doc

File
public File(String parent,
            String child)
Creates a new File instance from a parent pathname string and a child pathname string. 
If parent is null then the new File instance is created as if by invoking the single-argument File constructor on the given child pathname string. 
Otherwise the parent pathname string is taken to denote a directory, and the child pathname string is taken to denote either a directory or a file. If the child pathname string is absolute then it is converted into a relative pathname in a system-dependent way. If parent is the empty string then the new File instance is created by converting child into an abstract pathname and resolving the result against a system-dependent default directory. Otherwise each pathname string is converted into an abstract pathname and the child abstract pathname is resolved against the parent.
Parameters:
parent - The parent pathname string
child - The child pathname string
Throws:
NullPointerException - If child is null
