    When we develop a game sometimes we need gameobject move randomly without any user input. In this script a sprite randomly move in 2D and also rotate in moving direction.

    using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class move : MonoBehaviour 
{
    public float moveSpeed ;
    public Vector3 dir;
    public float turnSpeed;
    float targetAngle;
    Vector3 currentPos;
    bool play=true;
    Vector3 direction;
    void Start()
    {
        dir = Vector3.up;
        InvokeRepeating ("Start1", 0f, 5f);
    }
    void Start1(){
        play = true;
        direction = new Vector3(Random.Range(-3.0f,3.0f),Random.Range(-4.0f,4.0f),0); //random position in x and y
    }

    void Update()
    {
         currentPos = transform.position;//current position of gameObject
        if(play)
        { //calculating direction
        dir = direction - currentPos;  
    
        dir.z = 0;
        dir.Normalize ();
            play = false;
        }    

        Vector3 target = dir * moveSpeed + currentPos;  //calculating target position
        transform.position = Vector3.Lerp (currentPos, target, Time.deltaTime);//movement from current position to target position
         targetAngle = Mathf.Atan2(dir.y, dir.x) * Mathf.Rad2Deg - 90; //angle of rotation of gameobject
        transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp (transform.rotation, Quaternion.Euler (0, 0, targetAngle), turnSpeed * Time.deltaTime); //rotation from current direction to target direction
    }
    void OnCollisionEnter2D()
    {
        
            CancelInvoke ();//stop call to start1 method
            direction = new Vector3 (Random.Range (-3.0f, 3.0f), Random.Range (-4.0f, 4.0f), 0); //again provide random position in x and y
            play = true;
    
    }
    void OnCollisionExit2D()
    {
        InvokeRepeating ("Start1", 2f, 5f);
    }
}

    This is my solution for circle random movement:
      
    using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;
public class RandomMove : MonoBehaviour
{
 public float moveSpeed;
    Vector3 target;
    public float SpeedOfChangingTarget = 5;
    private float camHeight;
    private float camWidth;
    private float circleRadious = 2;
    SpriteRenderer spriteRenderer;
    void Start()
    {
        Camera cam = Camera.main;
        camHeight = 2f * cam.orthographicSize;
        camWidth = camHeight * cam.aspect;
        
        spriteRenderer = GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();
        
        InvokeRepeating("GenerateNewTarget", 0f, SpeedOfChangingTarget);
    }

    void Update()
    {
        circleRadious = spriteRenderer.bounds.size.x / 2;
        Vector3 currentPos = transform.position;
        if (currentPos == target)
        {
            GenerateNewTarget();
        }
        transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(currentPos, target, Time.deltaTime*moveSpeed);//movement from current position to target position
   }
    void OnCollisionStay2D()
    {
        GenerateNewTarget();
    }
    void GenerateNewTarget()
    {
        target = new Vector3(Random.Range(-(camWidth/2-circleRadious), camWidth/2-circleRadious), Random.Range(-(camHeight/2-circleRadious), camHeight/2-circleRadious), 0); //again provide random position in x and y

    }
}
