Session Modal doesn't appear Laravel 5.2 - php

Question

Hi everyone! I am using Laravel 5.2 for a web application. Within this app, the user can upload files. When the user wants to upload a file, but hasn't selected one they are Redirect::to the upload page with the message status saying something about choosing a file to upload. The web page used to have this code to show the message:
#if (session('status'))
<div class="alert alert-warning">
×
{{ session('status') }}
</div>
#endif
Which works great! But due to CSS and JQuery mocking, I would like to have a pop up window with the message. I went to search a few things and I found that a Bootstrap Modal would be the best. I adjusted my code to:
#if (session('status'))
<div class="modal fade">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal title</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<p>{{ session('status') }}</p>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
#endif
But now, nothing is shown! Could someone help explain to me why the modal isn't visualized?
So I have tried Mayank Pandeyz answer. And then inspected the browser. Which does show that the Modal is called with the right status message!
Consule error is: Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined

try this:
#if (session('status'))
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal title</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<p>{{ session('status') }}</p>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
$('#myModal').modal('show'); // You have to initialize it as a modal
</script>
#endif
