Hello Aditya_Shankar5,
Formatting disk usually requires your consent. Did you hit Format button at following screen during the installation?
To recover the data from formatted drive, you need to use third-party data recovery app or services. Most of such apps can recover data, if the new data is not written on the sectors it belongs to.
Good luck!
