Django saving model instance fails

For some reason I don't get this rather simple operation work. I'm trying to save model instance to database (sqllite), but the saving fails with no error message (just showing 500, internal server error). I have made my database with migrations (make migrations, migrate) and it should be up to date. So here is my view code:

post = Post(pub_date = datetime.datetime.now, image_url = " some url",  price = 0, item_id=1, description="some text", url=link)
post.save()

And here is are the models:

class Post(models.Model):
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')
    image_url = models.CharField(max_length=500)
    price = models.IntegerField()
    item = models.ForeignKey(Item, related_name='posts')
    description = models.CharField(max_length=300)  
    url = models.CharField(max_length=500)


class Item(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=150)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')
    description = models.CharField(max_length=300)
    image_url = models.CharField(max_length=500, default="#")
    categories = models.ManyToManyField(Category)

Use:

datetime.datetime.now()

datetime.datetime.now alone is a function and so you are trying to assign to pub_date a function, instead of function's value.
