Several thousand people gathered in large numbers at a private engineering college where Rajinikanth and Aishwarya Rai were shooting for 'Endhiran', a movie being directed by Shankar and produced by Sun Pictures.

The much-awaited film being made at a huge cost, 'Endhiran' went to floors a couple of months ago. The movie was shot in Peru and adjoining countries besides a few portions in Goa.

At Vellore on Sunday, scenes involving a cultural festival in the college were shot. Rajinikanth appeared as scientist and Aishwarya Rai as college student. Security was tight in and around the place and only students and faculty of the college with identity cards were allowed inside the premises. General public were blocked a few meters away by the police.

It may be recalled that Shankar and Rajinikanth had shot at the same place for their previous venture Sivaji.
