what I want to ask precisely is that is there any possibility that apache might 
consider the bogus request as 2 requests??

This is working fine and the error page also opens up fine, but the load on the 
server increases as well as on the apache server.

This is not apache problem. Try such request to see what happens. The
index.php is probably buggy and does what  it shouldn't do.
