import calendar

class HrPublicHolidayHolidays(models.Model):
_name = 'hr.public.holiday.holidays'
_description = 'Public Holidays Dates'

name = fields.Char('Holiday Name', required=True)
date = fields.Date('Holiday Date', required=True)
date_day = fields.Char('Day')
year_id = fields.Many2one('hr.public.holiday', 'Calendar Year', required=True)
variable = fields.Boolean('Date may change')

@api.onchange('date')
def _get_day_of_date(self):
for r in self:
selected = fields.Datetime.from_string(r.date)
r.date_day = calendar.day_name[selected.weekday()]


Then when i run the code, when i click on the add an item

first get the current date by default
ex: date = fields.Date(string='Date', default=fields.Date.context_today, required=True)

after that write this bellow function to get the name of the day,

ex:@api.multi
@api.depends('date')
def _get_day(self):
self.day = self.date and (datetime.strptime(self.date, '%Y-%m-%d').date()).strftime('%A') or ''
