The cause of problem is:
When backup was done it was not a complete single file backup but it was striped backup i.e. backup was done in two files for performance issue. So when the backup is done, the first file (x) contains information that there is second file (y) which contains continuing backup of this file. And the second file(y) contains information that there is first file(x) which contains backup.
So whenever you try to restore the files to database it expects the second file to be there in same folder. Do check the backup file(s) in directory, which you are trying to restore. There would be a second file too.
