'{{' is like an escape for '{'. When you use '{' or '}' in a string, Python thinks that it has to be replaced with a format argument. Therefore to use '{' or '}' in a string, you need to use '{{' or '}}' respectively. In you example, the first 2 '{' are considered to be 1 '{' and the last 2 '}}'nare considered to be 1 '}' and the '{}' in the centre is replaced by the argument.

Gautam Yadav it is because you are not passing format arguments to it. '{{' is considered as '{' only when the string is either a f-string or .format() is called on the string. Else the string will stay as it is.
