Try setting terms as array:

'terms' => array($getSearch)

Finally, I found my answer. I don't know this is the best way or know but it's solved my issue.

I tried below code in search.php

$getSearch = get_search_query();
$query = new WP_Query([
  'post_type' => 'any',
  'tax_query' => array(
    'relation' => 'OR',
    array(
      'taxonomy' => 'post_tag', //for tag
      'field' => 'slug',
      'terms' => array($getSearch),
    ),
    array(
      'taxonomy' => 'category', // for category
      'field' => 'slug',
      'terms' => array($getSearch),
    ),
  ),
]);
if ($query -> have_posts()):
  while ($query -> have_posts()) {
    $query -> the_post();
  } ?>
