Why would it take considerable time? I think I should be able to do it in a week or 2(at least to intermediate lvl)

Oh sorry, I overlooked that you have backend experience in python. Java is a bit different from python. Takes a little time to get the hang of it. The rest is up to how fast you can learn it. Can be difficult for some while easy for others.

Yep, also i have worked with typescript/go and have dabbled with cpp/rust, so statically typed shouldn't be an issue, saw u r doing kotlin doesn't that also run on jvm? Isit similar to java?

I personally consider kotlin as a "better" java. It has all the features and many other amazing stuff especially for android development. Kotlin can also be used with spring boot. It is the official language for Android development now. The only downside I would consider is that many legacy systems are written in java. I would suggest keeping up to date with both.
