Explanation

The correct answer is He asked me if I attend the film festival at Goa every year . Key Points The given sentence is a direct speech . The basic rules for changing or converting direct speech into indirect speech: The question mark (?) is removed and a full stop (.) is used at the end of a sentence. The given example is an interrogative sentence starting with a helping verb, therefore, 'do' will be replaced with 'if/whether'. The second person ' you ' will be changed into ' I'. The interrogative statement is changed into an assertive statement (helping verb will come after the subject). If reported speed in past/present routine action (here every year shows the routine action) then, there is no change in tense of reported speech.
