Mumbai, July 24 - Since the release of 'Om Shanti Om', Deepika Padukone has been seen in two more films -- 'Bachna Ae Haseeno' and 'Chandni Chowk To China'. But the leggie beauty insists that if at all there is a special movie after her debut vehicle, it has to be 'Love Aaj Kal'.

'I'm aware of the huge expectations that audiences have from 'Love Aaj Kal'. Personally speaking though, the film is beyond expectations for me. I would rather call it a very special film,' Deepika told IANS on telephone.

'We all have worked so hard on it, whether director Imtiaz Ali, Saif (Ali Khan) or myself, and we have become really attached to it,' said Deepika who is currently in London shooting for Sajid Khan's 'Housefull' where she is paired opposite Akshay Kumar.

'Love Aaj Kal' is releasing July 31 and she is excited about the film since it is as real as it gets.

'This is why I said that after 'Om Shanti Om' if there is a film that has been really special, it is 'Love Aaj Kal'. I can state three reasons why 'Love Aaj Kal' really fascinates me.

'First, the film's storyline is such that any common man can relate to it. It's so real and, as you watch the film, you would feel that so many instances shown in it have happened to you too in real life.

'Second, the film has a universal appeal.
