open a file in read and write mode simultaneously?

Hello,

I am trying to open a file in WRONLY | CREAT and RDONLY mode simultaneously,
in HDFS. I use one handle for the first mode and another pointing to the
same file in the second mode. I am not able to do so. While I believe that
HDFS does allow for concurrent reads and writes. Please let me know, how I
can achieve concurrent read and write to the same file.

Thanks,

Aastha.
