What is the best-suited numerical method?? Will bisection method be helpful in finding complex root? ... I tried it, but does not give me the proper result... pls help me... urgent. Thanks.

That will typically converge fairly rapidly to a root. One advantage it has over bisection is that you do not have to find two values of x that you know have a root between them- although, the closer you choose $x_0$ to a root, the faster the sequence will converge.
