iii – Audience would find dark comedy throughout the film.
iv – The production design is bright, colorful including its props just as the theme of this film.
v – A couple of songs are good to listen to.
+ Low Points
i – The film time length is short while being an entertaining film.
ii – The rich duplicate’s life is shown as handful of scenes only in compare to poor duplicate’s life.
iii – The ending for one heroine is good while bad for other one… depending on which duplicate she wins. Why ‘bad’ you say? Well the main problem is due his financial status. You see there is no character shift of him till the end.
+ Overall
With Danish Taimoor and Javed Sheikh at their best, Wrong No. is an effortlessly bought together to come up with good-rate comedy.
