Sattriya is correctly paired as the classical dance form originating from the state of Assam.

Bharatanatyam originates from Tamil Nadu, making its pairing with Karnataka entirely incorrect.

Kuchipudi originates from the state of Andhra Pradesh, not Kerala, which is known for Kathakali and Mohiniyattam.

Because the first two pairs are wrong, the option identifying only the third pair as correct is the right answer.
