Balaji,
I've had some success with modelling ferrites as Steve suggests, but with a 
further R in series with the parallel RLC to set a baseline ESR.

TDK's SEAT tool (http://www.tdk.com/seat.php) is very useful for 
experimentation with values of RRLC, allowing you to plot Z, R, Y etc. and 
match published data from the component manufacturer.

Best regards,

Mike
