Yes tht is a posibility too and i have tried tht approach but the issue is tht there are lot of html files in my app and i am trying to avoid writing any explicit url because thn i have to keep track of all the pages tht reference to the media server in tht fasion.

Can't i define my server url in MEDIA_URL and some how have django make a cross domain connection automatically? I mean it should be so hard...

Thanks this was my understanding. It looks like i have to route the
url to view and thn make a call urlopen().read() to fetch the file
from different server.

No! This is completely the wrong approach! If you do this you are
negating the whole point of having a separate media server. You are
ensuring that a request for a media asset has to go through the whole
Django stack, for absolutely no purpose.

An HTML page is quite happy to reference media on a different domain -
you just have to set the src of the img/script tags, or the href of
the style tag, to point to wherever your assets are. Really, really
don't do what you are proposing.
