Critical reception

The Perfect Girl received mix reviews from the critics. Subhash K. Jha gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, saying "The plot of debutant director Prakash Nambiar’s delicate rom-com dodges complications and unnecessary characters to focus on the here-and-now of the relationship that grows out of the chance encounter. The film is shot in real time. The hour that the couple spends together is handed down to us verbatim. This gives the proceedings a real raciness, a motivational push beyond what other boy-meets-girl films have to offer."[4]

Renuka Vyavhare of Times of India gave it 2.5 out of 5 Stars. She says "However, what begins as an interesting tale on serendipity and conversation romance on the lines of Before Sunrise (1995) and Before Sunset (2004), gets too philosophical to digest after a while. You wonder why two youngsters in their mid 20s harp on things like reincarnation and childhood trauma. This is where the drama loses grip and ends up becoming a conventional love story."[5]

Critic Shaiju Mathew gave a rating of 3 out of 5 stars. He lauded the performances of the lead actors. "Coming to performances, Teeshay and Tara both are apt for their parts and they bring life to their characters – Jay & Vedhika with their brilliant performances. Tara is cute, bubbly and loveable. She gets into her character effortlessly and makes the character of Vedhika her own. The chemistry between the lead pair is quite electrifying and you want to see more of them together onscreen. The story and screenplay are quite simple however the dialogues in parts showcases the quirky sense of humor of the director / writer."[6]

gollark: About the same as on regular CC - not great! It doesn't impede it.
gollark: PotatOS also has an automated recycle bin - deleted files go there instead of being deleted.
gollark: No, there's ctrl+T.
gollark: PotatOS can also be good for testing possibly dangerous code, as it is sandboxed so that if your code is doing EVILNESS you can just disable its ability to run automatically on boot and, er, reboot.
gollark: It's a pun on `rednet`, a vaguely similar CC-native thing.
