Solution

The correct option is A National Museum - New Delhi
Nataraja, massive yet elegant statue cast in bronze representing the Shiva as passionately engaged in ecstatic dance is preserved at National Museum, New Delhi. The dance the smiling Shiva is performing is the Tandava, the cosmic dance which both creates and destroys the universe.
