Django way will be

class CustomerForm(forms.ModelForm):
    .
    .
    class Media:
        js = ('js/customer_detail.js',)

and then include it like {{<yourformname>.media}} in your template, And write your javascript code inside that customer_detail.js

I have not tested this but this is how it should be (I am using jQuery here).

forms.py

class CustomerForm(forms.ModelForm):
    name = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Customer Name '}))
    address = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Customer Address'}))
    phone_number = forms.IntegerField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Customer Phone Number '}))
    email = forms.EmailField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Customer Email'}))
    contact_person = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Contact person'}))
    # amc = forms.BooleanField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'type "amc" if the customer is in AMC'}))
    amc_date = forms.DateField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'ex: Jan 20, 1996','id':'disabledInput'}))
    amc_product = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Products listed in AMC'}))
    # warranty = forms.BooleanField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Type "warranty" if the customer is in Warranty'}))
    warranty_date = forms.DateField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'ex: Jan 20, 1996'}))
    warranty_product_list = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Products listed in warranty'}))
    # on_call = forms.BooleanField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder': 'Type "oncall/on call" if it is On Call'}))
    # support = forms.CharField(widget=forms.TextInput(attrs={'placeholder':'Enter: amc/warranty/oncall'}))
    support = forms.ChoiceField(choices=support_choice, required=True)

class Meta:
    model = Customer
    fields = ['name','address','phone_number','email','contact_person','support','amc_date','amc_product','warranty_date',
              'warranty_product_list']

customer_detail.html

            $("#id_warranty_product_list").hide();
        }

        $("#id_support").on('change', function(){
            var val = $("#id_support").val();
            if (val == 'amc') {
                $("#id_amc_date").show();
                $("#id_amc_product").show();
            } else if (val == 'warranty') {

                $("#id_warranty_product_list").show();
            } else {
                hideInputs();
            }
        });

        hideInputs();
    });
