substr does not work with multibyte characters (i.e special character like Á). so
replacing substr to mb_substr to handle special character.
Submitting a patch for this issue.

Instead of mb_string i will make use of drupal_substr(). Because we are targeting large audience, and there might be chances people tends to set UNICODE_MULTIBYTE to 0.
Attaching patch for this changes.
