Nginx logrotate : permission denied

Hi,

I am getting below error in error.log file post logrotate :

open() “/var/log/nginx/access_abcd.log” failed (13: Permission denied)

post logrotate , new files with name /var/log/nginx/access_abcd.log are
getting created but logs are still getting written in old file with name
/var/log/nginx/access_abcd.log-20160428

logrotate file is as below :

/var/log/nginx/*.log /usr/local/nginx/logs/access.log {
daily
missingok
rotate 52
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
create 644 nginx root
sharedscripts
postrotate
[ -f /usr/local/nginx/run/nginx.pid ] && kill -USR1 cat /usr/local/nginx/run/nginx.pid
endscript
}

here /usr/local/nginx/logs/access.log are getting rotated correctly but
not
/var/log/nginx/*.log.

permsions and owners of files are as follow :
-rw-r–r-- 1 nginx root 0 Apr 28 03:21 access_abcd.log

machine is of linux flavour.
