    receive_date = forms.DateField(widget=forms.DateInput(attrs={'class': 'form-control ','readonly':True }),
                                input_formats=DATE_INPUT_FORMATS, 
                                initial=date.today())

The date format for client side widgets cannot be set server side. For the native browser datepicker, the date format is determined by the operating system's locale. If you use a javascript plugin for date picker, you can typically customize the date format with javascript.
