Not possible due to browser security....

That will be a security risk if the server can access the exact path on the client's machine and that's why Fileupload control doesn't allow you to see full path in your C# code.

Nope. The only thing the server can see is the filename and the actual filestream. As gladiatron and aspnet_regiis say in their comments, this is a browser security issue.
