You can't use the <a> tag anymore since some of the text you're trying to access isn't inside it anymore, target the document itself and then use ->plaintext:

$html = <<<EOT
<a href="www.myurl/point.html" class="l" style="color:#436DBA;" onclick="return rs(this,'8 Stunning Linguistic Miracles of The Holy Quran | Kinetic Typography 144p (Video Only).mp4');">&raquo; Download MP4 &laquo;</a> - <b>144p (Video Only)</b> - <span> 19.1</span> MB<br />
EOT;

$displaybody = str_get_html($html);
echo $displaybody->plaintext;

Here is another way of accessing each row thru DOMDocument with xpath:

// load the sites html page in DOMDocument
$dom = new DOMDocument();
libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
$html_page = file_get_contents('http://www.mohammediatechnologies.in/download/downloadtest.php?name=8KPEiGqDQHg');
$dom->loadHTML(mb_convert_encoding($html_page, 'HTML-ENTITIES', 'UTF-8'));
libxml_clear_errors();
$xpath = new DOMXpath($dom);

$data = array();
// target elements which is inside an anchor and a line break (treat them as each row)
$links = $xpath->query('//*[following-sibling::a and preceding-sibling::br]');

$temp = '';
foreach($links as $link) { // for each rows of the link

    $temp .= $link->textContent . ' '; // get all text contents

    if($link->tagName == 'br') {
        $unit = $xpath->evaluate('string(./preceding-sibling::text()[1])', $link);
        $data[] = $temp . $unit; // push them inside an array
        $temp = '';
    }
}

echo '<pre>';
print_r($data);
