I assume you are applying for a PhD program for Fall 2008, correct?
What is the research area you are interested in for future studies? Is it still computer vision and computer graphics?

Most of the course in Masters I have taken was on computer graphics and advanced computer graphics courses , related to my research area but not basic CS courses.

If you have completed couresework in a computer vision, computer graphics, machine learning, or other computer science class that required some knowledge of algorithm complexity, data structures, discrete math, etc., one thought is to ask a recommender to mention that in the recommendation letter. Many CS electives require some knowledge of discrete math, data structures, or algorithm complexity (big O notation, etc.).
Similarly, if you ever taken the GATE CS exam, a recommender could mention that in a letter as a way of showing your CS background.
Please let me know which, if any, of the following courses you have taken:
discrete math or graph theory
computer architecture
operating systems
theory of computation
principles/theory of programming languages

I have seen that most of the universities requires some basic CS courses like data structure and algorithm which i did not complete.

Yes, but they are also assuming that such people don't have an MS in computer science, so I would strongly recommend asking their graduate admissions specialist/advisor about your unique situation.

Can someone please suggest some universities where there is not such strict requirement?

Worse come to worse, there is always UT Dallas, and their application deadline isn't until May 1 for international applications.
