Description

Upgrading my RN version from 0.67.3 to 0.76.7, first trying on getting the app running on android. After some amount of effort was able to get it to build but crashed immediately after its installed on the emulator. Tried reopening the app but still crashes.I have tried and all the cache clearing steps. Finally got this issue when i tried running from android studio and got this error from the Logcat. Might not be able to share the reproducer. Please help me out if this is any issue regarding my packages or any incompatibility issue.

Steps to reproduce

Install build with yarn android.
