It's known as GI - Global Illumination.. basically it is indirect illumination, light bounces in the real world. There are many different ways to achieve this... you could start by telling us which software prog you are using? Some programs have it built-in or by external plugin like Brazil, Vray, Final render or both.

or, ppl apply dirt map for it. That's another easy way to make that look.

Dirt map, ambient occlusion.... do a search for both as they are based upon the same principle.
