The correct answer is option 1: Nasik. The question asks for the originating point of the River Godavari. The River Godavari, also known as the Ganges of the South, is considered one of the sacred rivers in India. It is the second-longest river in India and has its originating point in Nasik, which is a city in Maharashtra state. Nasik is located in the Western Ghats mountain range and is known for its religious significance. The river starts flowing from the Brahmagiri Hills near Trimbakeshwar, which is a famous pilgrimage site in Nasik. From there, it continues its journey for around 1,465 kilometers before merging with the Bay of Bengal in Andhra Pradesh. It is important to note that the other options provided (Pune, Mumbai, and Sholapur) are not correct as the originating point is Nasik.
