We frequently used the term “Models” in ML. like Linear Regression Model etc. Can anybody help me in understanding What actually a Model is? How do you define a Model to a layman?

It’s called a model because it creates a method for making predictions of the behavior of a system, based on training using examples of the system’s behavior.
In practice, a model consists of a set of mathematical equations, where the weight assigned to each term in the calculation is learned based on minimizing the errors between predictions and observations from the training data.
