@Jyo27 Try something like this:

Current Week Measure = 
  VAR __Date = TODAY()
  VAR __CW = WEEKNUM(__Date)
  VAR __Result = SUMX(FILTER('Table',WEEKNUM('Table'[Date]) = __CW),[total profit])
RETURN
  __Result



Previous Week Measure = 
  VAR __Date = TODAY()
  VAR __PW = WEEKNUM(__Date) - 1
  VAR __Result = SUMX(FILTER('Table',WEEKNUM('Table'[Date]) = __PW),[total profit])
RETURN
  __Result

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

Current Week Measure = 
  VAR __Date = TODAY()

Instead of Today() can we pass dynamic date /week num ?

@Greg_Deckler  can you please provide a solution for the above issue 

var__date = Today()

instead of today can we pass dynamic week number ?
