In order to select the correct form of the verb to complete the sentence, let's understand the subject-verb agreement. Subject and verb should agree with each other, i.e., if the subject is singular, the verb should also be in its singular form; and if the subject is plural, the verb should also be in its plural form.
'Two hundred rupees' is an amount of money. When we talk about an amount of money, it is considered to be a singular subject, because that's one amount. However, if we talk about a currency, for example 'dollars', then the subject is considered to be plural.
Option A - As 'two hundred rupees' is an amount of money, it is a singular subject and we must use a singular form of verb. 'Are' is a plural form of the verb, hence, we can't use it here. Thus option A is incorrect.
Option B - 'Were' is to indicate past tense of an action or a subject's state of being. However, the words 'these days' in the sentence explain us that the action or the state of being discussed is in the present tense. Hence, we can't use 'were' here. Thus option B is incorrect.
Option C - 'Was' is used to indicate past tense of an action or a subject's state of being' Though it is a singular verb form, we can't use it here as the sentence is in present tense. Hence, option C is incorrect.
Option D - 'Two hundred rupees is the price of a movie these days' is grammatically correct as both the subject as well as the verb agree with one another. As explained above, 'Two hundred rupees' is one amount and we consider it a singular subject, we need a singular verb. Hence, 'is' can be used here as it is a singular verb form. Thus option A is the correct answer.
