I have an excel file with a structure as the following:

and I want to get the data in a json structure as:

{“0”:{“Title”: “Title_1”, “List”: [“str_1”, “str_2”]}, “1”:{“Title”: “Title_2”, “List”: [“str_3”, “str_4”]}}

instead of:

{“0”:{“Title”: “Title_1”, “List”: “[“str_1”, “str_2″]”}, “1”:{“Title”: “Title_2”, “List”: “[“str_3”, “str_4″]”}}

How can I achieve this by using the pandas module in python?

I have tried:
df = pd.read_excel(“my_excel.xlsx”)
df.to_dict(“index”)

and get:
{“0”:{“Title”: “Title_1”, “List”: “[“str_1”, “str_2″]”}, “1”:{“Title”: “Title_2”, “List”: “[“str_3”, “str_4″]”}}
