Read file from line 2 or skip header row

with open(fname) as f:
    next(f)
    for line in f:
        #do something

f = open(fname,'r')
lines = f.readlines()[1:]
f.close()

If you want the first line and then you want to perform some operation on file this code will helpful.

with open(filename , 'r') as f:
    first_line = f.readline()
    for line in f:
            # Perform some operations
