The solution of the issue is to create an empty database and make a backup of that then tried to restore the backup on the database stuck in restoring mode. Set these options on the restore:

First, the recovery state needs to be RESTORE WITH RECOVERY.
Second, the “Overwrite the existing database” option needs to be selected.

With these settings, the empty database was restored into the one that was stalled out. Ref:http://www.kenmaynard.com/content/sql-server-database-stuck-restoring-mode
