Correct Answer: (3)
Solution : The error lies in the third part of the sentence.
The phrase "was begun" should be replaced with had begun to maintain the tense consistency. It indicates that the programme had already started before the narrator arrived at the theatre, so the past perfect tense is used.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: When at last we got to the theatre, the much-publicised programme by the Bollywood stars had begun .
