I finally got this working by updating .htaccess file under webroot folder with below code 

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>

You can run your php file from webroot by putting your file in nghome folder in webroot and hit the URL with file name.

http://www.example.com/nghome/filename.php

There is no need to make any changes in htaccess or anywhere else, simply creating a php file database.php inside webroot you can access it from browser like example.com/database.php

file path - app/webroot/filename.php
access from browser - example.com/filename.php

file path - app/webroot/somedir/filename.php
access from browser - example.com/somedir/filename.php

file path - app/webroot/somedir/subdir/filename.php
access from browser - example.com/somedir/subdir/filename.php

check your .htaccess file working or not inside webroot folder

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
</IfModule>

This line RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f is responsible for executing existing files. And also request full path including file name nghome/database.php
