Came here to say the same thing, and add that with Django, you have access to the amazingly vast landscape of Python libraries. Just being able to spawn Celery jobs is a huge plus.

Couldn't see any advantage over Sidekiq, Resque and friends. Not saying it's bad but just that the Ruby community has got your back for any web development need you might have...when working with Django I didn't get the feeling I am working with superior libraries.
An advantage of Celery is that it doesn't require payment for an enterprise version to add things like scheduled tasks.
If you're talking about Sidekiq there's free open source solutions for that in Rails world. https://github.com/moove-it/sidekiq-scheduler https://github.com/ondrejbartas/sidekiq-cron Besides Sidekiq is just one out of many.
Good to know, cheers
