Does speed of light depends upon the velocity of source in a medium (like water) other than space? if yes, does the speed gets added up when the light source moves in direction of light?

No, the velocity of the source does not affect the speed of light in any medium. The velocity of the medium, except when the medium is a vacuum, does affect the velocity of light in the medium.

If the source is moving, the medium is relatively moving... So shouldn't the source velocity affect its speed – Iron man Apr 23 '19 at 14:16

If the speed of light of a given frequency is measured inside the medium, it is dependent on the properties of the medium and nothing else. – S. McGrew Apr 23 '19 at 14:46
