How to rename the column header in the data frame?

Hi, in using eikon.get_data() to extract SmartEstimate data into python dataframes, I get "Earnings Per Share - SmartEstimate®" but cannot rename the header given the "®". How do I rename the column header in this case?

This should work

df = df.rename(columns={'Instrument': 'Test', 'Earnings Per Share - SmartEstimate®': 'Test2'})
