The lead actors of Yash Raj's upcoming crime drama Aurangzeb - Arjun Kapoor and Prithviraj Sukumaran- promoted their film in Gurgaon.

Kapoor, who will be seen in a double role in the film, looked quite excited and said that he is fortunate to have got such a film at an early stage of his career.

" For me it's a special film primarily because I never imagined so early in career I will get to do a film that's a cop, underworld drama, a family of cops and mafia," he said.

"I have grown up watching that kind of cinema when I was a kid. That's the most exciting part for me and I am glad people are liking it and also there is the uniqueness of a double role coming back after a while in Hindi Cinema," Kapoor added.

Speaking on the occasion, south superstar Sukumaran said that this film is t different from usual bollywood movies.

" The kind of film Aurangzeb is...it's very much a throw back of classic bollywood films of the 70's in a sense that its very much about performances and actors and intense senses, I don't know if there is a film like that at-least in recent past in Bollywood," he said.

"I understand there is a lot of cop drama's and gangster movies. But Aurangzeb will be different in a way that that it is very real. The efforts behind executing, convincing and making actors perform and the way actors are going toturn out is all to make you understand that it is a story and these are the people that would be existing in the world we belong to. So in that way it is a film which is very new in itself," Sukumaran added.

The movie, which also features Rishi Kapoor and Jackie Shroff, is all set to hit the theaters on 17th May.
