Strange, but I tried your scenario by following :-

<flow name="Flow1" doc:name="Flow1">
      <http:inbound-endpoint exchange-pattern="request-response" host="localhost" port="8081" doc:name="HTTP"   contentType="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" path="getDetails" /> 
      <object-to-string-transformer doc:name="Object to String"/>
      <logger message=" Logging ...... #[message.payload]" level="INFO" doc:name="Logger"/>
      <logger level="INFO" message=" Logging mule.......#[message.payloadAs(java.lang.String)]" doc:name="Logger"/>
      <logger level="INFO" message="Logging demo .......... #[payload]" doc:name="Logger"/>
    </flow>

And you can see I am able to log the values :-

Your code is absolutely correct. As Anirban pointed out, you may be making mistake while invoking the service. I tried invoking this service using postman plugin in Chrome and selected post with raw XML and it worked fine. Please try with postman and confirm if you still have the same issue.
