Answer 1

try related/index/index/product/11. Then you should be able to read the product param like this:

$product = Mage::app()->getRequest()->getParam('product');

• mdeveloper: what to do if i do not need double index/index
• Marius: then you need to create a custom router. take a look at this and try to adapt the answer to your needs.
• mdeveloper: can you help how can it be fixed using router

Answer 2

To get all the parameters from the url related/index/index/product/11/id/4 then you can use this:

$product = Mage::app()->getRequest()->getParams();
