Hi Siddhiraj,

Welcome to the open-source community! It's great to see you interested in contributing to Django. Here are some suggestions on how to get started:

1. Check out the Django Contributing Guide: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/. This guide provides an overview of the different ways you can contribute to Django.

2. If you're looking to contribute code, take a look at the "Advice for New Contributors" section in the guide: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/new-contributors/. This section provides some helpful tips and best practices for getting started.

3. You can also work through the "Writing Your First Patch" tutorial: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/intro/contributing/. This tutorial walks you through the process of contributing a patch to Django.

4. If you get stuck or have any questions, don't hesitate to post back in the django-developers group or the "Mentorship" section on the forum: https://forum.djangoproject.com/c/internals/mentorship/10.

I hope this helps you get started with your first contribution to Django. Good luck!
