@nishantt6969 Hey, I don't have that much time either due to an ongoing project at work.
Though I still believe getting yourself Ubuntu on VMware Hypervisor would be an easier option as that will allow you to accurately follow the video and won't incur relying on anyone or learning anything new.
Download ISO and VMware Workstation. Easy Install should take care of everything from there on.
After installation, shut down the VM go to its settings and change the network interface to bridge mode. From there on you can do everything you want.

Did you go through device openwrt page ?

Xiaomi Mi Router 4A Gigabit Edition

Xiaomi Mi Router 4A Gigabit Edition Warning.!! This hardware not same with Mi Router 4A 100m don't brick your router Warning Xiaomi is currently shipping Mi Router 4A Gigabit Edition devices without proper shielding since 2020. Be aware that those might cause problems due to radio...

openwrt.org

check your flash storage chip. ( if it's new one,no support yet.)
Btw if you can do return of product it would be nice as TP-Link a6 is around 2.1k same as mi 4a gigabit.
