Air India flight from Newark forced back after engine fire | NJ.com (http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2014/07/air_india_flight_forced_back_to_newark_after_bird_strike.htm l)
(revised story says no bird strike)
TV clip on this had pilot-to-tower discussion with tower asking if maybe the pilot's reported observation was some dust kicked up. I believe it may have reported tires blowing on landing.
Searching this event found a 2007 pprune thread on a 777 engine fire at takeoff in Newark.
(Sorry if this duplicates a current thread here I missed.)
