Inba is a rough character who works under Priya's brother, Malai Ganesan, as a bodyguard of Priya. Priya is an usurious girl, spending most of the time with her friends and absenting herself from the college several times. Hence Malai Ganeshan employs Inba, his faithful servant to guard Priya's activities. Priya insults him several times since she was not interested in somebody guarding her all the time. Priya falls for Inba, but he rejects it. In the meantime, Malai Ganeshan learns of the love affair and opposes it by beating up Inba. Inba opens a flashback about his love for a girl named Jyothi in school and the rest of story describes how Priya makes him understand his love and finally succeeds in his love after overcoming the hurdles and obstacles laid by Malai Ganeshan.

Release and receptionInbaa was released on 21 March 2008, Good Friday alongside Kannum Kannum, Sandai and Singakutty.[4] A critic from Rediff.com gave the film a rating of one out of five stars and wrote that "Everybody spouts the standard lines (what was dialogue-writer Subha thinking?) and once the climax is done, you heave yourself off the cramped seats with relief".[5] Sudhish Kamath from The Hindu wrote that "By all means, go for Inba. It's the most inspiring piece of Tamil cinema. If this chap can make a movie, so can you".[6] A critic from Sify gave the film a verdict of below average and wrote that "The film fails to entertain as the twists and turns are predictable, the Shaam- Sneha romance leaves you cold, and music of P.B Balaji is worth a snore not even one humable number. It is another banal formula film to be avoided".[7] Cinesouth gave the film a negative review.[8] Following the success of Kick, the film was partially reshot in Telugu as Neelo Naalo with actors Sunil and Junior Relangi. The Telugu version was directed by Nandhu and featured Kothapalli Ramakrishna as the cinematographer.[9][10] References
