I have this code in php to read the length of a string in utf-8,

<?php
 header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
 $a = "தமிள்";
 $c = strlen(utf8_decode($a));
 echo "The string input: ".$a." and its length:".$c;
?>

But it returns out put as : The string input: தமிள் and its length:5
Now I want to have the out put as 3 but not as 5, how to achieve that?

Thanks & Regards
