About Pill
On 26th April I have had Physical Intercourse with Protection of Condom. Due to some doubt I took Unwanted 72 within 1 hour after intercourse. And next day I have again done sex with fully protection. Now my period date was on 3rd may as per circle. Today is 4th. Period is yet not happen. I am verymuch nervouse and anxious. Is this delay of period is natural? After taking pill how many day it will be delayed? Is there any chance of pregnancy after taking unwanted 72 and using protection?

Please wait for at least 4 -5 days. At times the period is delayed under the effect of Emergency Contraception.
You have taken the emergency contraception when your period was just a week away.

The delay may be due to emergency contraceptive pill that has been taken. There may be delay of up to 1 week, so it is normal, but just rule out pregnancy with the urine pregnancy test and just wait and watch for ur period

Pill has high failure rate and pregnancy can happen despite taking the pill.
Do pregnancy test as you have missed your period date. If negative you can wait for your period.
