Try this

{% for i in i|rjust:obj.rating %}
  <span class="fa fa-star blue-star" id="star1">some text</span>
{% endfor %}

I tried, but in that loop statement obj.rating is returning None i think(hence for i in i, runes for 4 times), but when in put {{ obj.rating }} inside loop it shows the value. but not in the for loop statement why so? – Saran Prasad May 01 '19 at 11:23
I don't know why, did you write the code correctly without any syntax error? – Mehran Nouri May 01 '19 at 13:19
thanks, this worked for me. please edit i to "i". {% for i in "x"|ljust:obj.rating %} {% endfor %} – Saran Prasad May 07 '19 at 09:34

In your python code make a list like below and then pass it to template to iterate over it.

list = []
for item in range(rating):
    list.append(item)

make sure to end the loop by

{% endfor %}

sorry its just typing mistake i used {% endfor %} in my html page – Saran Prasad May 01 '19 at 06:35
no its not. its showing 'int' object is not iterable. obj.rating is integer value. – Saran Prasad May 01 '19 at 06:40
