Mandar,

Grep will work in perl.. tho you could do it otherways..since you're 
asking about grep..i'll do it with grep...

I a sure you're familar with how to open and read a directory..etc..so I 
wont add that... here ya go

@filesearch = (grep /[gG]/, @files)  //the [gG] searches for any 
instance of g or G - etc

foreach $filesearched (@filesearch) {
  print "$filesearched\n"
}
