The buzz is that director Shankar is 'silently' shooting 'Endhiran' at the Chennai Film City and other locations in the city. Shooting is going on in a popular gymnasium in Adyar. A few scenes involving Rajinikanth was shot amidst tight security.

Since Aishwarya Rai is camping in Kerala for Mani Ratnam's 'Ravana', the crew is shooting scenes that don't need her. A huge set has reportedly been erected at the Film City, where the film is to be shot.

Shankar had earlier filmed a song sequence in Peru followed by some European countries. The second schedule took place in Goa.

Produced by Ayngaran International, the movie would have musical score by A R Rahman.
