Actually after posting the thread here, I searched online for solving the issue and found some articles like this one. But this article suggested more solutions to resolve the issue. I followed some useful methods from there. First I run the game in compatibility mode and verified the all game files. Then I updated the graphics driver and performed a system restore. After doing the tasks properly, the problem got solved. There is no longer any issues while launching the game.
