It was a tough outing for the reigning Commonwealth Games champion who has never even won a game, let alone a match against the top seeded Malaysian.
Chong Wei needed only 34 minutes to move past the Hyderabadi, winning 21-12, 21-11 at the Gyeyang Gymnasium.
Later Manu Attri and N. Sikki Reddy also lost their mixed doubles Round of 16 encounter to Singaporean combine Danny Bawa Chrisnanta and Yu Yan Vanessa Neo. The sixth seeds won the contest 21-18, 21-23, 21-15 in 49 minutes.
