Raniammal falls sick and June decides to bring in her brother (Ravikumar) whom she yearns to meet before dying.

Revathy S. Varmha had published June R as a novelette in the English periodical Woman's Era and wanted to make the story into a feature film.

[2] Jyothika suggested that the film should be made in Tamil first and production began and Khushbu was signed on for a key role.

[8] Malini Mannath of Chennai Online wrote, "It's a film on female bonding, of three women whose lives are interwoven, and who find moral support and succour in each other.

But with the characters lacking depth, and the relationships not clearly defined or tackled, the story of female bonding fails to touch a chord".

[9] Malathi Rangarajan of The Hindu wrote, "Revathi Varma is the story, screenplay and dialogue writer and director of the film.

Is sensitivity to issues alone enough for a maker, is the query that arises when watching June R. Logic or the lack of it (in certain sequences) irks".
