Comment (by Shubham Jain):

 So the
 
[documentation](https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/validators/#django.core.validators.RegexValidator.regex)
 says, "regex pattern to search for provided value". I suppose this means,
 you try to see if value fits in the regex. But instead it sees if regex
 fits anywhere in the value. So in documentation, it must be "regex pattern
 to search for, in the provided value".
