Indian rock band Parikrama will relaunch the video of their classic hit, But it rained, to celebrate the life of their late guitarist and founder-member Sonam Sherpa.
A full version of Sonam's guitar solo will be featured for the first time on the video, which will be out on the popular guitarist's birth anniversary, October 8. Sonam passed away earlier this year.
"The video was originally shot and released in 2001, and was played on all top music channels of the day. The song was composed in 1996 and studio recorded in 2000. The video was made without any assistance from any agency, the band tied up with a director -- Dhiraj Bannerjee -- and between him and the band we did everything in-house," Subir Malik, founder member and keyboardist of Parikrama, told Ians.
Malik added, "It was probably the first ever film shot in Kaza (in Himachal Pradesh) and nearby areas of Spiti Valley.

Despite hinting at an Anglo-centric core, it soon becomes apparent that Beyond The Edge is a documentary-film about Edmund Hillary’s achievements as a mountaineer rather than Britain’s post-war achievements as an intrepid, all-conquering nation. The British Colony’s ‘last hurrah’ – as it was contemporaneously touted – was fulfilled by Kiwi and a Nepalese Sherpa.
Comprising stock footage, voice over work and cinematic scenes that feature silent actors, this documentary-cum-drama finds its pace as the expedition moves into its more critical stages. Of course, the higher Hillary (Chad Moffitt) and Tenzing (Sonam Sherpa) climbed, the less stock footage there was.
This is perhaps the film’s biggest downfall. While the balance between the old, grainy footage and the gleaming, high-definition shots was neat towards the start, it invariably swayed towards the contemporary as we reached the summit, and while this could have been an effective visual device, heightening the tension...
