D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -dhoti, long loincloth traditionally worn in southern Asia by Hindu men. Wrapped around the hips and thighs with one end brought between the legs and tucked into the waistband, the dhoti resembles baggy, knee-length trousers.

Detailed explanation-2: -In northern India, the pancha kachcham is often worn with the kurta, which is a type of collarless shirt. In the south of India, the dhoti is often paired with the Angavastram or the chokka, which are both unstitched pieces of cloth. The angavastram and chokka get draped over the shoulders.

Detailed explanation-3: -Remember, you do not necessarily need to wear anything under your dhoti but since the fabrics are usually very thin and almost transparent, wearing shorts can save you from the trouble.
