Awoken most certainly is a word; it comes from the old English verb "awake" and it means woken up, or made awake. The correct usage is anywhere that it could be replaced by "woken up".

'awoken' is the passive voice form of 'awoke' (past tense of the verb 'awake'). for instance, you can say "I awoke to the sound of dogs barking" or "I was awoken by the sound of dogs barking". in modern US English, awoken is a bit archaic - normally we'd say 'awakened' instead.

The word woken is the past participle of the verb 'to wake'; to emerge from sleep or a state like sleep, a stupor, or a trance; to become active or animated; to become alert or aware. Example sentence:

I've woken to reality, I can't afford a new car without a new job.

Is woken you up correct grammar?

Yes, but. Woken, as the past participle of wake, is chiefly British. Not exactly sub-standard in America, but unusual. As a medical transcriptionist of some 30 years, I have always changed the dictator's (usually a doctor) verbiage. Example: Dictator: The patient was woken up from general anesthesia. Typed: The patient was awakened from general anesthesia. Never had a report been returned to me as incorrect because of this change.

When you were about to reach there in dream you got woken up is correct sentence?

No. "Dream" requires an article or possessive, and with "there" we usually say "get," not "reach." While "got woken up" is not grammatically wrong, it is considered less correct than "wakened." Write: "When you were about to get there in your dream youwere wakened" for the passive voice; or "When you were about to get there in your dream youwoke up" for the active voice.
