    return render(request, 'freelance/create.html', context)

models.py

class Gigs(models.Model):
    user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='gig_user')
    creator = models.ForeignKey(Freelancers, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='gig_creator')
    title = models.CharField(max_length=1000, null=True, blank=True, verbose_name="Enter what you will do", default=" I will ")

In my code, it is getting a logged-in user instance and then creating the gig by assigning the freelancer to the created form.

@login_required
    def create_gig(request):
        freelancer = Freelancers.objects.get(user = request.user )
        if request.method == "POST":
            form = CreateGig(request.POST, request.FILES)
            if form.is_valid():
                new_form = form.save(commit=False)
                new_form.creator = freelancer
                new_form.slug = slugify(new_form.title)
                
                new_form.save()
                messages.success(request, f'Gig Created Successfully, Would be Live Soon')
                return redirect('freelance:listings')
        else:
            form = CreateGig()
        context = {
            'form': form
            }
        return render(request, 'freelance/create.html', context)

You also don't need this line in your view:

new_form.user = request.user
