Are you establishing the VPN connection from an OpenVPN client using the same Internet connection where our R8000 is connected to? This will make passing all traffic your already limited bandwidth Internet connection twice...
Nope i am not using the VPN client on the same network, i am using VPN client on another place. The netgear has own VPN server so ia= have created vpn server in my X6 R8000 device. but in netgear there is speedtest in my default gateway in that i am getting only 50 mbps speed upload even thought i have 200 mbps plan right now. so i have airtel connection and they have provided me the router of nokia ZTE and in that yesterday i had done the Bridge mode enabled and connected PPPoE connection in my netgear router , i thought that there was an double NAT problem so i turned off NAT in my airtel router but still it didn't works for me.
Your ISP Modem already has a built in router and wifi. This would be a double NAT (two router) condition which isn't recommended. This would be a double NAT condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem. https://kb.netgear.com/25891/DMZ-on-NETGEAR-routers

3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the NG router to the modem, LAN to LAN configure AP mode on the NG router.
