One Solution I tried:

Went to Project Properties by right clicking on "ProvHostedWeb".

Copied the URL under title "Project Url" and pasted it against ~remoteAppUrl in the AppManifest.xml file but it didn't work out. The app is still not getting deployed.

Also make sure that in visual studio your web project is associated with SharePoint project. You can check this by left clicking on SharePoint project, then from VS top menu View->Properties Window (if nothing is selected, select your web project from drop down):
