Something is wrong and I would suggest a vet visit. If he hasn't eaten in 2 days then he is at risk of serious complications from not eating.

Have you tried various types of wet and dry food? What types of food have you tried? Did something change 2 days ago when he stopped eating? Does he show any signs of an upper respiratory infection? Does he have white sores in his mouth? How's his energy? Is he eating at all, or just a little? If he's eating a little is he preferring wet or dry food?

Oh...........

i tried dry food , hand feeding him , he will eat couple and then turn his back the same with wet food as well. I even gave him fish ... he smelled it and left.
he sneazes twich a day but i am thinking is because my flat has carpet....and its something that he always does...
he is playfull and happy with his games.....

Really , i dont understand what is happening with this liitle monkey...

If he is sneezing, he may be bunged up and unable to smell his food, so things like heating his food and putting him in a steam filled room to help unbung his nose may help BUT he does still need to see a vet, he may need some medication as well.

Please do not try to guess what is wrong....take your kitty to the vet immediately.
They can fail rapidly and die when they don't eat.

A 6 month old kitten of any breed should not have enough shed to even worry about hairballs.
He need to see a vet.
I'd be more apt to think he has allergies or a URI.
