I was able to figure out the reason why I am facing this problem. When I 
mention the content type as "image/jpeg" or any content type as a matter of 
fact, REST Assured is adding the charset at the end of content type which is 
leading to this problem.

So what it actually sends in the header is :

Accept=application/json
Content-Type=image/jpeg; charset=ISO-8859-1

This extra string is causing the problem i am facing. Any suggestions as to how 
I can send just "image/jpeg" in content type without the charset thing.

An help would be appreciated.

You can disable it using the EncoderConfig:

I'm also thinking about not adding a charset by default since some people seem 
to have problems with it. Charset seems strange to add to a charset that is 
binary anyways so. I'll add an issue for it.
