Thank you :)
That worked. I had another query regarding date being used as filter.
With the new df which has the column cast as date I am unable to apply a
filter that compares the dates.
The query I am using is :
df.filter(df.Datecol > datetime.date(2015,1,1)).show()
I do not want to use date as a string to compare them. Please suggest.
