Sami Khan has signed on to star in Wrong Number 2.

The Aisi Hai Tanhai actor will be working in Yasir Nawaz's sequel for the 2015 comedy. Neelum Muneer has been brought in to play the female lead, while Javed Sheikh, Danish Nawaz and Nayyar Ejaz will return to feature in the new film.

Speaking to Images, Sami revealed that "it's a romantic comedy like the original Wrong Number."

The original film followed Danish Taimoor as he connives to and succeeds in swapping lives with a lookalike millionaire in order to escape his father's ultimatum of getting a job and settling down with the neighbour's daughter (Sohai Ali Abro).

While the plot of the sequel is being kept under wraps, Khan feels the film's entertainment value will be like the original film's. "I can't tell much about my character but we will try our best to entertain our audiences in the best way possible. I have high expectations from the team. I'm working with them since director Yasir Nawaz and producer Hassan Zia's already have two big hits under their belt."

Sami also hinted that Yasir Nawaz will appear in the film. Another cameo by Nawaz Badmaash, maybe?

He added, "The plot for Wrong Number 2 is written by Danish and Yasir Nawaz while the dialogues are being worked on by actor Ahmed Hassan."

While the film does not have a release date, Sami Khan believes that it'll be out in 2019.
