# inititialising json object
ini_string = {'vishesh': 1, 'ram' : 5, 'prashant' : 10, 'vishal' : 15}
# printing initial json
ini_string = json.dumps(ini_string)
print ("initial 1st dictionary", ini_string)
print ("type of ini_object", type(ini_string))
# converting string to json
final_dictionary = json.loads(ini_string)
# printing final result
print ("final dictionary", str(final_dictionary))
print ("type of final_dictionary", type(final_dictionary))

Output

('type of ini_object', <type 'str'>)
('final dictionary', "{u'vishal': 15, u'ram': 5, u'vishesh': 1, u'prashant': 10}")
('type of final_dictionary', <type 'dict'>)
