I am doing things correctly because the gstreamer manual says 
"GST_STATE_NULL: this is the default state. No resources are allocated in this
state, so, transitioning to it will free all resources." 
On reaching end of stream I am setting the state to null, but it seems it is
not freeing resources as there is a huge memory leak. Instead if I set the
state to GST_STATE_READY there is no memory leak but after playing continuously
for 1-2 hours, the video starts freezing. 

code:

void Player::onBusMessage(const QGst::MessagePtr & message)
{
    switch (message->type()) 
    {
        case QGst::MessageEos: //End of stream. We reached the end of the file.
        {
            if (m_pipeline)
            {

                m_pipeline->setState(QGst::StateNull);
                playNext();
            }
        }
        break;
    }
}
