The correct answer is "as beautiful as".

Key Points 
  • The correct grammar structure to use in this sentence is "as + adjective + as".
  • This structure is used to compare two things that have the same level of the quality described by the adjective.
    • Example: The dog is as big as a monkey.
  • In this case, we are comparing the woman's beauty to that of a peacock.
  • The sentence could be rephrased as "She is as beautiful as a peacock in the blue satin saree."

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
