The correct answer is option 4 which suggests that only statement 3 is correct.

Statement 1 is false because Hema Malini is not the Chairperson of the Children’s Film Society in India. The position had been held by various people, but never by Hema Malini.

Meanwhile, statement 3 is correct in acknowledging that esteemed actors Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand have all been recipients of the prestigious Dada Saheb Phalke Award, a public service bestowed for distinguished contributions to Indian cinema. Therefore, Only statement 3 is true.
