ii) Only one person is sitting between Naila and Anup.

iii) Geeta is sitting next to Anup.

As Geeta's position is not known yet therefore Geeta is sitting adjacent to either left or right.

Case 1)

Case 2)

qImage66e2b43f04b89f5c29349902

iv) Kajal is not sitting with Anil.

v) Vinod is not sitting next to Kriti but he is exactly opposite to Anup.

As there is no possible position for Vinod in case 2, therefore it is eliminated.

After positioning Kajal and Vinod only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e. Pintu.

Case 1) 

qImage66e2b43f04b89f5c29349917

Thus, two friends i.e. Anil and Pintu are sitting between Vinod and Kriti if counted from the right of Vinod.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.
