You can specify the timezone as 'Asia/Dhaka' in the TIME_ZONE setting [Django-doc]:

# settings.py

TIME_ZONE = 'Asia/Dhaka'
# …

Note that if USE_TZ setting [Django-doc] is set to True, then:

When USE_TZ is True, this is the default time zone that Django will use to display datetimes in templates and to interpret datetimes entered in forms.

You can define your own time zone in setting.py, USE_TZ = True TIME_ZONE = 'Asia/Dhaka'. Django documentation
