Thanks a mil for drawing my attention to the fact that i was running the 
old binary. I investigated further and realized that the startup script 
as you stated was pointing to an old binary. So I modified the script to 
point to the new binary and all seems to be working perfectly well. :D 
:D

I must add that it seems right to build with the new source which is 
nginx-0.8.53. One other thing was that, I faced an error while pointing 
to the new binary file. Error is shown below

unknown directive "ssl" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

The solution to solving this problem was to recompile nginx with the 
configure option "--with-http_ssl_module".

./configure --with-http_ssl_module

THANKS MAXIM!!! 'MEDAASE' as we say in my local dialect.
Cheers!
