Mumbai, Feb 22 Filmmaker Karan Johar has spoken about how he has set boundaries for people and it is not negotiable.

Karan took to Instagram, where he shared a post about how he used to “tolerate a lot” to keep people in his life.

The filmmaker wrote: “I used to tolerate a lot just to keep people in my life.. Now I know my boundaries aren't negotiable.”

Earlier this week, Karan praised TVF writers and said that “they are rooted, commercial, and mazedaar.”

During his appearance on Komal Nahta's "Game Changers", Karan was asked which writers he would bet on.

To this, KJo replied, “But jo TVF hai na The Viral Fever, unke jo writers haina, vo kamal ke writers hai. They are rooted, they are commercial, and mazedaar writers hai. Bahoot acha likhte hai (The writers of TVF are fabulous. They are rooted, commercial, and fun. They write very well).”

He also spoke about his experience working with Alia Bhatt, Sidharth Malhotra, and Varun Dhawan in the 2012 drama "Student of the Year." The filmmaker spoke about his bond with the trio and how he believed in their potential from the beginning.

Karan was asked who he had bet on before starting the film and he shared that he never treated them like newcomers, but like stars right from day one.

KJo stated, “No, I'm telling the truth, I won't lie. For me, it was just that I told my team - Siddharth and Varun, these two were my assistants, and I met Alia for the first time when she came from school. And when I launched them, I told everyone on the set, the choreographer, the production, the designer, to treat these three like megastars."

He added, “They asked what it meant. I said, ‘If you give them that confidence, they will face the camera like stars. If you treat them like newcomers, they will give you the performance of newcomers.' And they performed like stars."
