I have a model 'MyModel' with many fields and I would like to update a field 'status' using PATCH method. I'm using class based views. Is there any way to implement PATCH?

Use update_fields in save() If you would like to explicitly mention only those columns that you want to be updated, you can do so using the update_fields parameter while calling the save() method. You can also choose to update multiple columns by passing more field names in the update_fields list.
Serializers allow partial updates by specifying partial=True when initializing the serialzer. This is how PATCH requests are handled by default in the generic views.
serializer = CommentSerializer(comment, data=request.data, partial=True) This will allow you to update individual fields in a serializer, or all of the fields if you want, without any of the restrictions of a standard PUT request.
