Django custom user not able to log in from web app but works fine in Admin

I have created an App called "myapp" with custom user called "CustomUser" along with a custom user app called "customuser". I am able to successfully login from the admin. But I am not able to login from the app login.

Here is the login function:

def login(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
          
        email=request.POST.get('email')
        password=request.POST.get("password")

        user = authenticate(request,email=email,password=password)
        if user is not None:
            auth_login(request,user)
            messages.success(request,'You are logged in')
        else:
            
            messages.error(request,"invalid login credentials")
            return redirect(login)
           
        return redirect(request,'myapp/home.html')
    else:
        form = AuthenticationForm()
    return render(request,'customuser/login.html', {'form':form})

Here is the admin:

from customuser.forms import *
from customuser.models import Profiles
class UserAdmin(BaseUserAdmin):
    # The forms to add and change user instances
    form = UserChangeForm
    add_form = UserCreationForm

    filter_horizontal=()
    list_display = ('email', 'FirstName','LastName', 'last_login','is_active','date_joined','is_admin')
    list_filter = ('is_admin','is_staff')
    fieldsets = (
        (None, {'description': (
                "Enter the new user's name and email address and click save."
                " The user will be emailed a link allowing them to login to"
                " the site and set their password."
            ),
            'fields': ('email', )}),
            ('Password', {
            'description': "Optionally, you may set the user's password here.",
            'fields': ('password',),
            'classes': ('collapse', 'collapse-closed'),
        }),
        ('Personal info', {'fields': ('FirstName','LastName')}),
        ('Permissions', {'fields': ('is_admin','is_staff')}),
    )

    add_fieldsets = (
        (None, {
            'classes': ('wide',),
            'fields': ('email',  'password',  'FirstName','LastName', 'is_admin'),
        }),
    )
    search_fields = ('email','FirstName','LastName')
    ordering = ('email','FirstName','LastName')
    filter_horizontal = ()
    def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
        if not change and (not form.cleaned_data['password'] or not obj.has_usable_password()):
            
            obj.set_password(get_random_string())
            reset_password = True
        else:
            reset_password = False

        super(UserAdmin, self).save_model(request, obj, form, change)

        if reset_password:
            reset_form = PasswordResetForm({'email': obj.email})
            assert reset_form.is_valid()
            reset_form.save(
                request=request,
                use_https=request.is_secure(),
                subject_template_name='registration/account_creation_subject.txt',
                email_template_name='registration/account_creation_email.html',
            )

admin.site.register(CustomUser, UserAdmin)

admin.site.unregister(Group)

It looks like the login function is not resulting in user object.

Solution was creating a new form that doesn't inherit from base Django AuthenticationForm and not using ModelForm.
