'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte

When I try to read TextGrid File Using
grid = textgrids.TextGrid(annot)
it is showing the following error
'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xff in position 0: invalid start byte

I don't it just happen today . It was working perfectly fine, but I just updated the library it is showing me this error

I think this is about Praat’s annoying habit of using UTF-8 or UTF-16 with no apparent pattern. In some parts of the code I have tried to make it more tolerant. I have to see into this.
