Django: is this possible to call view from template like ASP.NET MVC

I am working on Django framework. I am searching for function which call view from template.

In Asp.NET MVC we can call action(view) from view(template) in this way.

@Html.Action("Controller Name", "Action Name") or

@Html.Action("Action Name")

In simple words I want to get template html in other template.

def index(request):
    return render(request, 'index.html')

def my_list(request):
    q = MyModel.objects.all()
    return render(request, 'mylist.html',{'my_list':q})

index.html 

<html>
<head></head>
<body>

#want to call my_list view

</body>
</html>

mylist.html

<script>
    #lot of script here
</script>

{% for record in my_list %}
    <p>{{ record }}</p>
{% endfor %}

The solution which i have get from my search use html form or jquery post or get request.

my_list view contains queryset objects. I dont want call this query directly in index view. This is a partial view.

What are the solution are available for this type of issue?

Thank you

Use include tag. You can pass context to the template using with statement.
This isn't the same as @Html.Action, but it's quite similar.

It is doable but seems like you are trying to reinvent inclusion template tags.

@register.inclusion_tag('mylist.html')
def my_list():
    q = MyModel.objects.all()
    return {'my_list': q}

And then in index.html:

<html>
    {% load my_tags %}
    <head></head>
    <body>
        {% my_list %}
    </body>
</html>
