Would you please suggest me some exercises to strengthen my core. Right now I don't have access to any machine, just have a pair of dumbbells.
 
Get an experienced lifter to teach you how to deadlift.
 
How much weight in the dumbells? If they are of a good size, you can still do squats, deads, and lunges, which are all good for core strength. If not, you are limited to low weight or body-weight exercises, such as:

Turkish getups

Burpees

Crunches (all varieties - inclined, weighted, twist)

Planks

Interval squats
 
The best exercise for the core is leg raises on wall bars. By performing this exercise alone, one becomes capable of performing all the other numerous exercises for the same muscle group.

Here is a demonstration:
