Ranjeet scored solid upset win over Korean Hyun-Woo Nam, mostly Ranjeet's first win over top-500 player ... Prajnesh scored also best win of his career beating fellow seeded player, Ashutosh Singh in a very long match ... Exciting stuff from both.

Other hand Sunil winning matches but not convincing performance from him ... Rupesh also managed after long time back to back win after upset win over Divij.

In doubles Divij Sharan and Vishnu Vardhan having purple patch in these Indian futures.
