I am following the document https://doc.sitecore.com/developers/100/developer-tools/en/walkthrough--using-the-getting-started-template.html to create a test sample project for Sitecore Headless Development.

Everything is working perfectly and I got an understanding of how the PageModel is automatically bound with the requested page.

public IActionResult Index(PageModel page)

And how the component model is being registered.

.AddModelBoundView<ContentBlockModel>("ContentBlock")

And how it is being used in views.

@model ContentBlockModel

but I have some different requirements. I want to get ContentBlockModel directly from the page route something like

ContentBlockModel contenBlockModel = page.Route.Placeholders["myproject-main"][0]

Is there any way to get ContentBlockModel from PageModel directly?

Once you get a Component from the Placeholder, you can use the ReadFields<T>() method or other Read methods to get strongly-typed values from it. Keep in mind that this is just JSON deserialization, the ASP.NET model binding attributes won't work here.
