Why not? See don't go for any kind of cliche. Once upon a time there was literally 1% student in science was girl. And now see girls are doing great. So for a girl there are no such deviations in good or bad and no discrimination can be done on gender. If a field is good for a boy then it is also good for a girl provide he/she is interested in the subject.
Now, VIT Chennai is one of the best private institutions in India with a very good placement, faculty and infrastructure. So if you have interest in Mechanical then you can obviously go for it and it will be great for you. CSE is not the only career choice. Mechanical engineering can also take you to higher level of gratitude. So don't feel any inferior about the field. If you see the recruitments of ISRO then you will get to know the major number of vacancies every year are for mechanical engineering. Also Mechanical Engineering is a ever green field. So if you are affectionate about the course, if you have genuine interest in it then don't bother about cliches and just pursue it.
