C Correct answer
Explanation

"Mine" is a possessive pronoun that stands alone, replacing "my lunch". The sentence structure requires a possessive pronoun in the object position, not a possessive adjective like "my" which would need a noun after it. "Hers" would refer to Ritu's lunch, which doesn't fit the context.
