Before saving the comment to server use the below code

NSData *dataForEmoji = [comment dataUsingEncoding:NSNonLossyASCIIStringEncoding];
NSString *encodevalue = [[NSString alloc]initWithData:dataForEmoji encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

Save the encodedvalue to your server.

When you retrieve use below code before you display

NSString *emojiText = [NSString stringWithCString:[textFromServer cStringUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]
                                  encoding:NSNonLossyASCIIStringEncoding];
