@Mahalakshmi are.
It is not option 4 because the indirect speech satisfies as "he", so it will be "You" in direct speech.

"Told" will become past sentence, and as we have convert into direct speech we have to use "said".

What is the difference between said and told?

We should not choose option B because "told" should not be followed by "to" and "said to " itself gives the meaning of "told. ".
