The best option for such requirement is Tie::File

In anyway, you need to seek to the beginning of the file before reading it again.

Code:
#! /usr/bin/perl -w

open FH, "+< testfile" or die "$@";
print FH  "New content added\n";
# Move Curser to start
seek(FH,0,0);
while (my $line = <FH>) {
    print "$line";
}
# Move it to END
seek(FH,0,2);
close(FH);
