i have found a good resource regarding my problem. Here it is
http://wiki.open-esb.java.net/attach/RestBCEchoSSL/SslClient.java
I made few changes in my code regarding the given source and it worked perfectly. Actually I was not passing the certificate and key stores properly.
Here is the full code.
