Correct Answer: Smriti said to me, "Hellol Where are you working now?"

Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

When transforming reported speech into direct speech, it's crucial to pay attention to the verb tenses and maintain the structure of the question.

The steps of conversion are as follows:

• The reporting verb "asked" is changed to "said".
• The first-person pronoun "I' is changed to the second-person pronoun "you". And "then" is changed to "now".
• The word "greeted" is replaced with the exclamatory word "Hello" and the interrogative sentence should begin with the wh-word "where".
• The past continuous tense "was working" is changed to the present continuous tense "are working".
• The words of the speaker are enclosed in the inverted commas.

So, the correct sentence is: Smriti said to me, "Hello! Where are you working now?"
