Does this product have good position in the SERPs already or is it a new product?
Does the site have good traffic overall and place well for the target keywords?
If yes to the above, I wouldn't worry about one page of dupe content - but don't make it a habit.
But if you're still worried, can you add significantly more copy to one of the dupes?

Some of the products rank well and others doesn't rank well as they will be new products.
please give any suggestion so that i can solve this issue without getting any duplicate content problems. The requirement is that I should show two different urls compulsorily. What can I do so that the Search Engine feel that the two urls have different content.

Yes, just write different content for the new site. Is it really that difficult to do?

Exactly what do you mean by this? Where must the two different urls be "shown"?
How is traffic going to be driven to the "campaign" url? If not by organic SERPs -- which would be difficult for two urls with same content to be indexed -- can you simply disallow it in robots.txt or slap a noindex on it?

Is the extra URL say a friendlier one for direct type traffic - maybe to be printed on a flyer, or shown in a press ad?
Can't you just stop that page being indexed? Or use canonical URL?

That's a good idea. Simply choose one to be indexed and ban the bots from the other. Google will obey robots.txt if you use it.

Thanks friends for your valuable replies. I want both the urls to be indexed as I will optimize both the urls.
I had one thought of adding google on/off for the description alone. But if i add those tags to the content the url will be hidden. Will there be value to that particular url as contents are king.
