Explanation:

• The past continuous (also spelt as past progressive) is verb tense, which alludes to that an ongoing past action/event, was happening at a specific moment of interruption, or that two ongoing actions were happening with reference to the same time frame.

• The past continuous is created in the format: was/were + present participle.

• The past continuous form of the verb is mostly used to indicate a longer action in the past that was interrupted.

• The interruption or overlapping is usually a shorter action in the past simple form.

• It is thus important to remember this can be a real interruption or just an interruption in time.

• For instance, While Jason was sleeping last night, someone stole his bike.

       Sandy was waiting for him when we got off the plane.

• In the simple past, a specific time is mentioned to show when the action started or was completed.

• In the past continuous, a specific time only interrupts or overlaps the actions.  

• From here, we can clearly notice the overlapping of two actions (a longer one followed by the shorter ones), the most appropriate option would be " was".

i.e. Vinod dash was singing when Shrey knocked at his door.
