A320 Engine Fire at VR

I'm wondering about this scenario in an A320...

Engine fire at Vr.
400 feet you run the ECAM action and you secure the engine.

But... let's assume the engine fire does not go out. The light stays illuminated.

What do you? Do you do a 180 degree turn and land back on the departure runway? Or do you continue normally... push to level off and clean up, and complete the Ecam...

I recall an instructor said you have roughly 7 minutes to live with an uncontained fire.
