now I need ad ' symbol also to this modelname how can I do this?

actually I do not need escape. I need add ' mark also when entering data — Root, Nov 06 '18 at 16:30
You would enter the escaped quotation mark into your regex. `/^[A-Za-z0-9. -\']+$/` — aynber, Nov 06 '18 at 16:32

You just need to add ' to your regex character class:

'modelname'    => 'required|regex:/^[A-Za-z0-9. \'-]+$/|unique:modols|max:255'
                                     Here ------^

Bear in mind that your regex have the - at the end of the character class, if not it will be treated as character class range, if so you will have to escape it with \-
