It's urgent.
I assume you mean "transaction log" when you say "binary log". It is possible to restore your database if you have a file system backup of the database in some state before the "DROP DATABASE" command. Then you could start from there and restore the database to a point just before the DROP. If you have no file system backup, there is no way.
