North is the right answer because udai is in north and facing towards south, and vishal in south and facing towards north. Sunrise is from east so, both the shadows directed towards west. We have two options here.

1. Vishal shadow was exactly to the left of udai.
2. Udai shadow was exactly to the right of udai.

If we can go with question option 1 is correct.

There is no possibility to change the positions of udai and vishal, if we change options 1 and 2 will get reversed then we can't go with the question.

Question is not cleared. Why everybody is considering the sun is in the east? It may be in the west also in the afternoon. So in that case answer will be different. Please cross check it.

@Nirosha is correct. If Vishal & Udai would face along the East west direction, then the answer will differ.

Correct answer. Because the sun rises morning at east. Shadow of Vishal will appear in west. So Udai facing north direction.

Sun rises East.

They meet at Morning time. Facing at opposite direction.

NORTH Vishal.

WEST EAST.

Left <-------- Udai <----------- East.

Shadow sun light.

SOUTH.

So Udai facing north.

If shadow is on persons right side then he is facing south direction and if shadow is on persons left side then he is facing north direction.
