Is there a way i can generate the correct output without changing the quotes in all the places ? I saw some similar answers @ Isn't there any other way of doing double quotes in LaTeX besides `` + ''? but none seemed to work.

Replace at first the last quote with the editor and "Search and Replace"
"<space> -> }
Then repcae the first quote with
" -> enquote{
and then use always:
documentclass{article}
usepackage[french,ngerman,english]{babel}
usepackage[autostyle]{csquotes}
begin{document}
enquote{quote}
enquote*{quote}
enquote{quote enquote{quote in quote}}

Here's a LuaLaTeX-based solution, which doesn't require you to modify the existing "..." and '...' pairs of quotes. It consists of a Lua function called msq (short for 'make smart quotes') and two utility LaTeX macros which switch the Lua function on and off.
documentclass{book}
usepackage[english]{babel} % or some other suitable language choice
usepackage[autostyle]{csquotes}
usepackage{luacode}
begin{luacode}
-- msq: "make smart quotes"
function msq ( s )
s = s:gsub ( '"(.-)"' , "\enquote{%1}" )
s = s:gsub ( "'(.-)'" , "`%1'" )
return s
end
end{luacode}
newcommand{msqOn}{directlua{ luatexbase.add_to_callback(
"process_input_buffer", msq , "msq" )}}
newcommand{msqOff}{directlua{ luatexbase.remove_from_callback(
"process_input_buffer", "msq" )}}
begin{document}
msqOn
"test double quotes" and 'test single quotes'
msqOff
"test double quotes" and 'test single quotes'
