Gita Chandra

Gita Chandra was the wife of Haresh Chandra, and mother of Rani Chandra. She moved into Bannerman road with her family when children where being ubducted 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: Day of the Clown)
