I have opened a separate window from a page using window.open(url);.I have set some global variables inside the first window. Now I want to access these variables inside my new window. How can I do it? or is there any way to achieve this?

Yes, it is possible via the window.opener object.
For example: If you have this code in an HTML file:
// JavaScript code in index.html file
window.myVariable = 'variable value';
window.open('child.html');
The myVariable variable is accessible in the child.html file
// JavaScript code in child.html file
console.log(window.opener.myVariable); // outputs 'variable value'

You can use Querystrings to achieve this. There are a number of links available with valuable resources if you do so:
how to exchange variables between two HTML pages?
Pass JavaScript variable between two HTML pages
Passing JavaScript data values between 2 HTML pages.
A basic usage example is the following:
Screen1.html (passing data from):
function sendData()
{
window.location = "Screen2.html?" + dataToBeSent;
}
Screen2.html (receiving data):
var query = window.location.search;
