 I have a DateTimeField in a model in models.py which i have given a
 default value of django.utils.timezone.now(). When i changed the default
 value to datetime.datetime.now() and ran the makemigrations command, it
 gave me an error in autodetector.py

 as far as i know it is trying to compare a timezone aware date with a
 simple datetime which will not be possible for datetime objects.
