Create a View(A block view), Set number of nodes to 1, filter your content type (article), and set sort criteria to random.

Ram,
"Random" is not an attribute like "ascending/descending".
Rather... it is its own field to sort or on. Click on the drop-down for adding another field to sort on... go through the list slowly and you'll see "Random" as a choice.
You might, if I remember correctly, even be able to set ascending/descending as an attribute after you have added Random as a new sort field. That, of course, makes no sense and it makes no difference what that attribute is set to.
I needed help in a similar situation as well; it really is counter-intuitive for "Random" to be a field to sort on. But we do love Views, so we'll take it with its warts.
Good luck,
Shai
