Mr. Sohal met Jackie Chan at the Prince Charles Cinema, London, when he was there for his film Chinese Zodiac. He was lucky enough to meet him at the Q&A session after the screening. After the event, Jackie Chan was mobbed by so many people, as the cinema is just around the corner from London's China Town. After Jackie Chan was able to get into his car, he opened up the roof and waved at everyone.


It is rare for anyone to have an original poster signed, as the majority of signatures are on pieces of paper, photographs, and video/DVD sleeves.


This martial arts comedy was directed by Robert Clouse and stars Jackie Chan. Jerry Kwan (Jackie Chan), a Chinese American martial artist is living a peaceful life in Chicago, when he catches the eye of the Mafia, who are trying to get him to pay part of his family's restaurant profits. He takes them on, which they're impressed by, and forces him to join the Battle Creek Brawl fight in Texas. If he wins the fight normality will be restored and he'll also receive the prize money.
