Honestly, I dont have any idea how to analyze Page life expectancy value using SQL Server Profiler. Can you give me some idea(s) on how to use this?

My bad... I was distracted by other things.
You need to run performance monitor

Goto Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Performance
Add a counter, select "Buffer manager" and then "page life expectancy".

Buffer Manager is prefixed with the instance name of SQL Server you wish to profile.

In first textbox, select the server you want to profile.
Beneath scroll down do "...$instancename - Buffer Manager".
