The correct answer is

1 only

Among the Padma Shri 2025 awardees, the field associated with each name above is verified as follows:

Pair 1 – correct: Gokul Chandra Das, a renowned Dhak player from West Bengal, received the Padma Shri in the field of Art, specifically for his contribution to folk music and percussion. He is widely recognised for training women in this traditionally male-dominated form, and 'Folk Music' fits his recognised field.

Pair 3 – incorrect: Farooq Ahmad Mir from Jammu & Kashmir was conferred the Padma Shri in the field of Art (not Literature).

Pairs 2 and 4 also do not match the official award fields.

Therefore only pair 1 is correctly matched.

Hence, the correct answer is 1 only.
