The correct answer is option 3, i.e. A-F and C-E.

Rule: 

'On the one hand' and 'but on the other hand' is used when you are comparing two different facts or two opposite ways of thinking about a situation.

For example: On the one hand I'd like a job that pays more, but on the other hand, I enjoy the work I'm doing at the moment.

Similarly, in the given question, sentence A and F, and sentence C and E make a pair.

The sentences made are,

1- On the one hand Saurabh likes cooking, but on the other hand he hates devoting time to it.

2- On the one hand Kritika is married, but on the other hand she is leading the life of an unmarried woman.
