...                    "born": [pd.NaT, pd.Timestamp("1940-04-25"),
...                             pd.NaT]})
>>> df
       name        toy       born
0    Alfred        NaN        NaT
1    Batman  Batmobile 1940-04-25

1  Batman  Batmobile 1940-04-25

#dropping columns having more than 50% missing values(1994/2==1000)
df=df.dropna(thresh=1000,axis=1)
