Hi Sachin,
If you have added the unique=True later and migrated the existing table, I
would also suggest you to first clean up the NULL and duplicate entries
using a script or even from shell.
After doing that you can use
* try: *
# your code here
* except IntegrityError: *
#create variables here to send user error message
One more pointer - try checking for the user input( X.object.filter method)
in the unique fields in database before performing .save
