Pallavi,
I worked on Solaris/Linux but, I like HP-UX more. I'd vote for that. However, your situation is not your choice.
To answer your question, Solaris/Linux, it actually depends on how much money you have and how big your requirements are. If you have enough, better stay with HP-UX not that its better than others, just that you need not confuse.
Discuss with management and application teams. See how things work with both and read articles. You cannot go migrate an operating system since someone posts on a forum. Since, this is not a break-fix.
Most importantly, as methyl stated, TEST IT and see how it behaves on your applications. That would help you the most.
All the best!
