Replacing "quiet" by either vga =normal or vga=788.

However replacing it with 'nomodeset' works. I have been able to get the console. However this works only if I do not install any desktop environment. If I install a desktop environment from the console, I again get the distorted image.

Use it to replace the string "quiet" if it exists. UUID=... should also be
present somewhere on that line.
