Shape Image View can help you with your requirement

<com.github.siyamed.shapeimageview.{ClassName}
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent"
   android:layout_margin="8dp"
   android:src="@drawable/neo"
   app:siBorderWidth="8dp"
   app:siBorderColor="@color/darkgray"/>

in your case you can use com.github.siyamed.shapeimageview.HexagonImageView

There are lot other shapes available, refer that library for more detail.

Have a look at CustomShapeImageView also

Thanks for your answer. But how can I rotate it like in the image – Akshaykumar Maldhure Jun 30 '16 at 13:03
you can use `android:rotation` property of `ImageView`, as `HexagonImageView` also extends same class. – Ravi Jun 30 '16 at 13:06
You r right , but when I rotate it using android : rotation it also rotates image – Akshaykumar Maldhure Jun 30 '16 at 13:20
In that case you need to do customization with library. – Ravi Jun 30 '16 at 13:21
