This is the only condition in the query. There is a btree index on the
column today.
Is there any way to optimise it.

I'm sure others out there have better ideas, but you might want to try

where current_date = date '2004-11-05'

Might not make a difference at all, but perhaps PostgreSQL is coercing both values to timestamp or some other type as you're only providing a string to compare to a date. Then again, it might make no difference at all.

My 1 cent.
