Hi,

I have a lookup on a form from another list(entity). Now this lookup holds all records from the other entity which users can select on current form. How can I fetch all these records in the lookup using JavaScript on current form?

IF you want to fetch the loookup record data Use WebApi get the records from the entity.

Use CRMRESTBUILDER tool to generate the code.

Just download the managed zip file and import it to crm. After import refresh and go to the Settings>> Customziations. You will see a icon CRM REST BUILDER. CLick on it. It will open a the rest builder. Then refer this on how to select the fields and entity.
