Alok Saxena has been appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of Ishq FM, which is now under the ownership of Manoranjan Media Group. This leadership change follows the acquisition of Ishq FM from the India Today Group, marking a new chapter for the radio station.

Saxena brings over three decades of experience in media and advertising sales to his new role. His career includes senior roles at prominent media organizations such as Red FM, where he was instrumental in building revenue streams and expanding market presence. His expertise is expected to play a crucial role in revitalizing Ishq FM’s operations and programming.

Speaking about the new appointment, Sahib Chopra, Director of Manoranjan TV Group, said, “With Ishq FM, we are committed to delivering an exceptional radio experience, led by some of India's finest RJs like Luck, Sapna, and Soumak. To strengthen this vision, we’ve brought on board Mr. Alok Saxena, who brings nearly three decades of experience in the radio industry. His inclusion reflects our serious intent to scale and innovate in this space. All I can say now is—Do the Ishq, baby!”

Commenting on his appointment, Saxena said, “We aim to deliver better music and richer radio content through innovative programming—taking radio beyond the conventional. I believe radio in India has strong growth potential, especially when creatively aligned with consumer and listener needs.”

The acquisition of Ishq FM by Manoranjan Media Group was finalized earlier this year. The deal included three FM stations operating at 104.8 MHz in Mumbai, Delhi, and Kolkata.

Known for its romantic music format, Ishq FM has been a staple in the Indian radio landscape. Under the new leadership of Alok Saxena and the ownership of Manoranjan Media Group, the station aims to enhance its content offerings and strengthen its connection with listeners across its broadcast regions.

Saxena’s appointment as CEO is seen as a strategic move to steer Ishq FM toward renewed growth and innovation in the competitive radio market.
