I had bought a curry leaf plant from nursery and repotted it. After some days another plant started growing in that pot. One thing I noticed about this plant is it sleeps during the night. All the leaves are closed during night.

This appears to be Talinum paniculatum. Here is a source from an extension service in Texas that has more information on the plant:
