Why would it be dying? Django is still experiencing consist growth (on Github at least), big companies like Instagram, Pinterest, and Udemy still use it, and because it's a Python based framework, it's arguably pretty appealing to a lot of new developers (it certainly was for me).
The reason people think like this because the JavaScript ecosystem is getting larger and larger and with every month some new framework or runtime. This makes people feel the web development ecosystem in python3 is not growing at all. It's all javascript and it is the only one active out there.
Also twitter is a big culprit here. I have seen many devs at twitter just say, "EWW, Who uses Django?" even when some of them never tried Django. Just making others get a bad impression, who were about to try it for the first time.

I am talking about companies using real-time products.

Well yeah, i think the perception is being made as such . But I guess for AI-ML applications javascript is not the best option.
Agreed!
