Laravel 5.2 Unicode Characters not encoded with or without blade
<p>My Controller Method include the code as follows </p>

<pre><code>$News = DB::table('news')-&gt;skip(0)-&gt;take(1)-&gt;get();
return $News[0]-&gt;news_title;
</code></pre>

<p>and my database config file as </p>

<pre><code>'mysql' =&gt; [
        'driver' =&gt; 'mysql',
        'host' =&gt; env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
        'port' =&gt; env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
        'username' =&gt; env('DB_USERNAME', ''),
        'password' =&gt; env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
        'database' =&gt; env('DB_DATABASE', ''),
        'charset' =&gt; 'utf8',
        'collation' =&gt; 'utf8_unicode_ci',
        'prefix' =&gt; '',
        'strict' =&gt; false,
        'engine' =&gt; null,
],
</code></pre>

<p>and the output looks </p>

<pre><code>à®¤à¯Šà®´à®¿à®²à®±à¯à®±à®¿à®°à¯à®•à¯à®•à¯à®®à¯ à®µà®¿à®Ÿà¯à®¤à®²à¯ˆà®ªà¯ à®ªà¯à®²à®¿ à®®à¯à®©à¯à®©à®¾à®³à¯ à®ªà¯‹à®°à®¾à®³à®¿à®•à®³à¯
</code></pre>
