Gita Chandra was the wife of Haresh, and mother of Rani Chandra. She moved to Bannerman Road with her family when children were being abducted by a clown known as Odd Bob the Clown. When she first met Sarah Jane Smith, she told her that Rani wanted to be a journalist like Sarah and believed Rani to be doing work experience with Sarah as she was defeating the Pied Piper.

Gita was an easy-going, sociable person. In contrast with Maria's mother, she quickly embraced her neighbors from over the road, and saw them as chiefly positive influences on her daughter's life. She also appeared to have a strong bond with her husband. She claimed that the reason she had recently gained weight was because her husband had a Dawn French fetish. (SJA: The Day of the Clown)

She was a a Gemini and as such was one of the first to be taken over by Truman and the Ancient Lights. She became a member of Truman's inner circle, although seemed to have no memory of what happened during the incident after Trueman was defeated. (SJA: Secrets of the Stars)

She briefly let Clyde Langer visit Rani but was nearly erased from time until Sarah Jane restored everything. Clyde and Rani in the meantime met an alternate timeline version of her. (SJA: The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith)

When she was working in her florist she was kidnapped by Mrs Wormwood and put in a trance. Mrs Wormwood did this to catch Sarah Jane's attention. Gita was rescued when the Bane tried to catch and eat Mrs Wormwood alive. She seemed to have no memory of the incident. Later that day Cal Kilburne went to Sarah Jane's house she found him and invited him in for coffee. He led her to believe that he was Sarah Jane's nephew but in fact he was Bane. (SJA: Enemy of the Bane)

She later attempted to get a job for Genetec Laboratories by placing flowers in the foyer, but was taken by security. She and Haresh escaped and encountered alien Judoon. They returned home and Gita happily exclaimed to Rani and Sarah Jane that she saw aliens. Rani then took her inside for a cup of tea. (SJA: Prisoner of the Judoon)

Like Chrissie, Gita also seemed to have problems getting Sarah Jane's name right, as she often referred to her as just Sarah.


In The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith, Gita briefly meets the Doctor when he gatecrashes the wedding that she at Bloomin' Lovelys provided but it is unlikely that she remembers him
