@Mr_Magoo 's solution worked but just answering your questions too for future reference -
I booted to Live Zorin and I did not reach the step to select the option to install 3rd party drivers. Wifi didn't load in Live medium too. A drawback in this laptop is lack of ethernet port. One good hint that you gave me in your comment is telling me Zorin is based on Ubuntu 20.04 which is few years old and hence may be not up to date software wise. So, I'm going back to Ubuntu.
