Hey Ayaan, you could probably use this sort of playbook

---
- hosts: all
  sudo: true
  tasks:
  - name: Install folder
    sudo: true
    action: shell sudo mkdir -p /tmp/install/mysql/ && cd /tmp/install/mysql/
  - name: Download MySql
    sudo: true
    action: shell sudo wget http://{{ repo_host }}/MySQL-5.6.15-1.el6.x86_64.rpm-bundle.tar
