This masala person can cause you to fall crazy with the characters and can conjointly make certain that you just fall off your seat each couple of minutes courtesy the significant doses of laughter that will come your way. But be warned that if you're squeamish and rate humor as being clean or dirty then this is often for sure not your cup of tea.

Asad Haroon of Dispatch News table same, "Wrong Number is a slapstick comedy filled with humor. One cannot stop happy throughout the moving picture and therefore the dialogues are as good as written and up to the mark. The script of the movie wasn’t predictable that much but the dialogues were totally unpredictable and funny to such an extent that one could say that I didn't see that coming. The production quality of Wrong range isn't that nice as of Bin Roy however the screen is pretty bright of wrong range.
