tried downloading NDK, deleting .gradle folder from project and from installs but not going forward
Environment: Windows 10
In case someone has the same issue with Intellij on Ubuntu, the following solved my issue:
Remove everything in ~/.gradle/caches
I went to that location where gradle build failed to create parent directory and deleted cache folder there
