logger.info not working in Django logging

Following is the logging snippet I have used in my django settings.py file. All the GET,POST requests are getting written to log but when i wrote logger.info("print something"), its not getting printed/captured in console as well as the log file

Please suggest a workaround to capture logger.info() logs

views.py

import logging

logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)

def custom_data_generator(request):
    logger.info("print somethig") # NOT GETTING CAPTURED IN LOG FILE
    return somethig

settings.py (DEBUG = True and DEBUG_MODE = False in settings.py file)

LOGGING = {
'version': 1,
'disable_existing_loggers': False,
'formatters': {
    'simple': {
        'format': '[%(asctime)s] %(levelname)s|%(name)s|%(message)s',
        'datefmt': '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S',
    },
},
'handlers': {
    'applogfile': {
        'level': 'DEBUG',
        'class': 'logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler',
        'filename': '/home/mahesh/Documents/refactor/unityapp/unity/media/myproject.log',
        'backupCount': 10,
        'formatter': 'simple',
    },
    'console': {
        'level': 'DEBUG',
        'class': 'logging.StreamHandler',
        'formatter': 'simple'
    }
},
'loggers': {
    'django': {
        'handlers': ['applogfile', 'console'],
        'level': os.getenv('DJANGO_LOG_LEVEL', 'INFO'),
    }
}
}

log data generated as follows

It's probably because your views module doesn't have a logging level set, so it will inherit the root logger's default level of WARNING. If you add a root entry with a level of INFO, similarly to the documented examples, you should see messages from other modules. Alternatively you can specify logger names under the loggers key for your specific module hierarchy, whatever that is. (Your example only overrides the WARNING level for modules in the django hierarchy, i.e. code in Django itself.)

In the example you provided, you are only setting the log level for the 'django' logger. That logger controls the log level for django.request, django.server, django.templateetc. If you are looking to set the log level for your own apps, you need to set the log level for that particular app's logger, or set it for all apps using a configuration like below

LOGGING = {
    'version': 1,
    'disable_existing_loggers': False,
    'handlers': {
        'console_handler': {
            'class': 'logging.StreamHandler',
        },
    },
    'loggers': {
        # More info on '' (unnamed) loggers at the end of this comment
        '': {
            'level': 'INFO',
            'handlers': ['console_handler'],
        },
    },

}

The '' (unnamed) logger will process records from all loggers. More info here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/logging/#configure-a-logger-mapping
