Pick out the correct sentence in indirect speech of the following sentence: He said to me, “What are you doing?”

Correct Option: 3
Option 3 is correct as it properly converts the direct speech into indirect speech without changing the meaning. Option 1 changes the subject incorrectly. Option 2 uses 'that' unnecessarily, which is grammatically incorrect in indirect questions. Option 4 changes the meaning by using 'why' instead of 'what.'
