Answer 1

if your hidden value is static.Than try this

View

@using (Html.BeginForm(new { id = "postform" }))
{


 @Html.HiddenFor(m=>m.hiddevalue)
    
    

    
}

Controller

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult MapIcon(Hidden hidden, string hidden1, string hidden2)
{
    var hiddenvalue = hidden.hiddevalue;
    var hiddenvalue1 = hidden1;
    var hiddenvalue2 = hidden2;
    var value=hidden.hiddevalue;//null
    FormCollection col = new FormCollection();
    var value = col["hidden1"];
  //  string value = mycontroler.ControlName;

    return View(hidden);
}

Script

 $(document).ready(function () {

 $('#hiddevalue').val("Jaimin");

});
