ImageKit does not show thumbnail on Django Admin

I have deployed an ubuntu server running Django. For image thumbnailing am using PILLOW and ImageKit. When I try to save an entry the main ImageFile is saved and the thumbnail is created aswell but once I save I get a server error 500. Once I reload the same page the entry loads but shows no thumbnail and once I click on the thumbnail i get a 404 Not found on the browser.

My nginx config is below :

    upstream app_server {
    server 127.0.0.1:9000 fail_timeout=0;
}

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;

    root /usr/share/nginx/html;
    index index.html index.htm;

    client_max_body_size 4G;
    server_name _;

    keepalive_timeout 5;

    # Your Django project's media files - amend as required
    location /media  {
        alias /home/django/django_project/media;
    }

    # your Django project's static files - amend as required
    location /static {
        alias /home/django/django_project/static;
    }

    # Proxy the static assests for the Django Admin panel


    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_pass http://app_server;
    }
}

The media files ares served correctly. My question now is, shall i create another variable that points to the thumbnail path? Any ideas?
