Critical reception
Hassan Hassan of Galaxy Lollywood rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars saying that If you have loved JPNA series or any other feel-good masala entertainers that don't defy logic, Wrong Number 2 is the film you should go for. There are very high chances that you will leave the cinema halls amused, for all the right reasons.[12] Zeeshan Ahmad of The Express Tribune remarked, ''Wrong No 2 lays groundwork for a plot only to completely ignore it later. The central romance is shallow and half-baked, with the only upside to the film a few moments of genuine humour.''[13]
Soundtrack
The music of the film is composed by Simaab Sen while lyrics are written by Fatima Najeeb, Ahsan Ali Taj and others.
