The following patch solves this problem. Actually html export has no issues
with this.
* lisp/org-latex.el:
+ Modify the custom variable org-latex-to-pdf-process to include
-output-directory option for
the command pdflatex.
+ org-export-as-pdf()
Give some respect to EXPORT_FILE_NAME if it has path elements.
Modified some of the messages to include the file name.
Thanks and Regards
