In case when you need to initialize form with already predefined details of the form instance, for example form that add comment to a post - you can predefine post_id in the form instance instead applying it in the save() method.

class AddCommentView(CreateView):
    template_name = 'comment.html'
    model = Comment
    form_class = CommentForm
    
    def get_form_kwargs(self):
        kwargs = super().get_form_kwargs()

        post = Post.objects.get(pk=self.kwargs['post_id'])
        instance = self.model(post=post)
        kwargs.update({'instance': instance})

        return kwargs
