Goodtimes is the lifestyle channel of NDTV. It was launched in September 2007.^[1]

Rebranding

Goodtimes underwent a makeover in November 2013 to redefine the lifestyle entertainment category codes once again. From being India's oldest lifestyle channel, it became its youngest with programming that is impulsive, interactive and with an attitude that resonates with the youth. The new logo, icons, indents and a vibrant and dynamic colour palette are a testament to the channel's continuing evolution as India’s premier lifestyle entertainment destination.

Awards

Goodtimes has won several programming awards at the Indian Television Academy Awards, Indian Telly Awards and World Media Festival for key shows and interstitials like Highway On My Plate, Band Baajaa Bride with Sabyasachi, No Big Deal and Making of the Kingfisher Calendar.

In 2015, Goodtimes won topmost honours at the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards, one of the most prestigious awards in the world of culinary writing, for the books Highway On My Plate II by Rocky & Mayur, and Vicky Goes Veg by chef Vicky Ratnani in three categories – Best Culinary Travel Book and Best TV, English, and Best Vegetarian Cookbook. Judged as the 'Best Fashion & Lifestyle Channel' at the ITA (Indian Television Academy) Awards for two consecutive years, Goodtimes is beamed directly across international markets such as US, UK, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Mauritius and Maldives.
