Cold Emailing MD ..

Hi, I was talking to another student who told me that he got an internship in Private Equity by sending an email to a director that ended up being forwarded to the analysts. 
Have you ever tried that kind of mail ? What should I put in the e-mail: just an application for an internship or the usual bullshit (I'd like to talk about your job etc...) Thanks in advance haha
