The file I had created myself but I have realized that the problem was with the path to the file. Django request.POST['file'] uses an "InMemoryUploadedFile" to handle file upload. And I could not explicitly reference the path of the file from the fileupload input, and parse directly into "pandas.read_csv" function. But, I have managed to manipulate the "csv.read" to work in my favor now. Thank you for the suggestions though. Very much appreciated.
