curl -I http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/jyamagis/release/VCTK-Corpus.tar.gz
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found

Meaning that file is not available on the webserver, I'm guessing that script you used did something like this:

wget -O VCTK-Corpus.tar.gz http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/jyamagis/release/VCTK-Corpus.tar.gz

Since the file didn't exist on the webserver an empty file was placed, you can just check it with:

ls -l VCTK-Corpus.tar.gz

please help me with this issue!

To add to the above from @f33dm3bits, view your own post. Click on the link it made. It gives a 404 error. (You can click it right here in your browser.) That means 'not found' in server-speak. You'll need the correct address. That's beyond our control. If it's not available at that address, it's not available at that address.

Is it supposed so be ....

Index of /jyamagis

??

As mentioned by the others, that file is no longer on that page.
A quick bit of DuckDuckGo-Fu yielded this:

CSTR VCTK Corpus

udialogue.org

Which mentions the website you were attempting to download from as the original source.
So maybe try downloading the file from the above link instead!
