RNFirebase core module was not found natively on android, Firebase 16.7.0

Issue

I have updated my prohect from v5 to latest firebase version , Now I am having issue with a React Native project for android platform. We searched about it and it is only for older version of firebase module for having manual installation. For this project its automatic installation but we are getting this issue for apk although working fine in simulator while development

"react-native": "^0.67.5", "@react-native-firebase/app": "16.7.0", "@react-native-firebase/messaging": "16.7.0",

The react.gradle file registers a task for each build variant (e.g. bundleDebugJsAndAssets
and bundleReleaseJsAndAssets).
These basically call react-native bundle with the correct arguments during the Android build
cycle. By default, bundleDebugJsAndAssets is skipped, as in debug/dev mode we prefer to load the
bundle directly from the development server. Below you can see all the possible configurations
and their defaults. If you decide to add a configuration block, make sure to add it before the
apply from: "../../node_modules/react-native/react.gradle" line.

// default. Can be overridden with ENTRY_FILE environment variable.
