I want to know is there a way to curve a rectangle outwards (gives arc shape effect: see attached image)? Or do i have do it manually using the pen tool by adding anchors to the rectangle line? I have also tried to do it with arc Up and arc down horizontal (make with warp)tool.But its a complex process. Is there any simpler and better way to do it?

You can also use the curvature tool to curve specific lines of an object.

If you want to do that for a rectangle, click on the rectangle, then click on
a line, click the curvature tool and drag the line.

You could use an "Inflate" warp on the rectangle...



Either using an effect (Effect → Warp → Inflate...), or using an envelope distortion (Object → Envelope Distort → Make With Warp... then "Inflate" from the Style dropdown).

You can "apply" the distortion by going to "Object → Expand/Expand Appearance" if needs be.
