so, I got the solution; if anyone is looking for the same then this may help you:-
by using .also{} method the problem was solved;

get("/somePath") {
  val client= KMongo.createClient("mongodb+srv://${System.getenv("USER_NAME")}:${System.getenv("PASSWORD")}@cluster0.2wr7r7n.mongodb.net/?retryWrites=true&w=majority")
  val clientResponse = client.getDatabase(System.getenv("DATABASE_NAME")).getCollection(System.getenv("COLLECTION_NAME"))
                      .find().toList().json 
  call.respond(clientResponse).also {
      client.close() // closes the connection after responding
    }
}
