D: After a while she asked me: “Have you heard of Chitrabani?” I hadn’t.  Correct Answer ACBD

The correct answer is option 4) i.e. ACBD.

  • A is the first sentence since it introduces the prime character of the incident, a 17-year-old.
  • C gives his location and how he fell into a conversation at that particular spot with a girl. So, C should follow A.
  • B shows that they had initially discussed photography while both were waiting outside the camera repair workshop before she asked about 'Chitrabani'. So, B and D form a pair.
     

Thus, the correct arrangement is : ACBD.
