MUMBAI: JioStar has appointed Anokha Joshi as its new associate director for legal and regulatory affairs, marking a significant addition to the company’s leadership ranks. Joshi, who announced the move on her professional network, steps into the role after an eight-year stint with Star India, where she handled legal, regulatory and standards-and-practices mandates across entertainment, sports, studios and digital platforms.
