Now there is another problem which is the bilayer is now gradually increaing in area. the box -Z vector is decreasing and the Box-X and Box-Y are increasing. The current area is 61.2A2 after 1.6ns run, but i am afraid of if the bilayer increases more with more simulation.

61.2 is very much within acceptable limits.  in any case you haven't
got the equilibrium value yet, for that you'll need in the order of 10
ns (minimum).
