You can use dt.strftime, if need convert datetime to other formats, but then dtype of column is object (string):

import pandas as pd

df = pd.DataFrame({‘DOB’: {0: ‘26/1/2016 ‘, 1: ‘26/1/2016 ‘}})
print (df)
DOB
0 26/1/2016
1 26/1/2016

df[‘DOB’] = pd.to_datetime(df.DOB)
print (df)
DOB
0 2016-01-26
1 2016-01-26

df[‘DOB1’] = df[‘DOB’].dt.strftime(‘%m/%d/%Y’)
print (df)
DOB DOB1
0 2016-01-26 01/26/2016
1 2016-01-26 01/26/2016
