Changing animations mid way does not work

Lottie-iOS Issue

I have an animation that is running in .loop mode. When the api call fetch is done , I want to update the animation mid way to a success / failure animation. Setting the animationView to a new animation and then playing does not play anything. The view is empty and it is not loading any animation

        let path = BundleLocator.getResourcesBundle()?.path(forResource: "lottie_animation", ofType: "json") ?? ""
        
        let animation = Animation.filepath(path)
        
        self.animationView.loopMode = .loop
        self.animationView.animation = animation
        self.animationView.play()
    }

Animation JSON

The animation json plays normally when I load it first. Loading it after the first one fails

Found a way around for this. Have to actually remove the view from its parent superview and re-add it again for this to work.
However doing this way is causing a flicker in the animation when I am trying to remove and add it again. Kindly help

 
         self.animationView.removeFromSuperview()
        let animation = Animation.filepath(path)       
        self.animationView.animation = animation
        self.animationView.loopMode = .playOnce
        animationView.frame = uiView.bounds
        animationView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit

        uiView.addSubview(animationView)
