if you keep driving in this state some thing will definitly be damaged..

DO NOT DRIVE!!!

first check for leaks.
than check for blockages. take out the radiator and have it thoroughly flushed.
then check all water pipes
check water body. does it rotate freely or make some noise or is jammed?
replace water body if needed.
chek water body belt is it slipping or broken
