While Sania crashed out with a 2-6 2-6 loss to Dutch Michaella Krajicek, Bopanna bowed out losing 2-6 4-6 to Argentine Guillermo Canas.
This defeat means that Sania remains winless against Krajicek at 0-4. The loss also marks a disappointing end to the Hyderabadi girl's build-up for next week's Wimbledon.
In the lopsided match, Sania struggled to find her feet from the very start and lost her serve twice before Krajicek raced to a 5-1 lead in the first set that lasted barely half an hour.
The Indian could not recover from the opening setback and was thoroughly outplayed in the second set as well with Krajicek hardly breaking a sweat to finish it off in another 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, qualifier Bopanna cut a sorry figure in his match against Canas, also a qualifier but who has to his credit a win over world number one Roger Federer last year.
The one-sided encounter lasted little over an hour.
