PaddleOCR: PaddleOCR Freezes on M2 MacOS Ventura version 13.5

I installed

PyMuPDF-1.20.2 and paddleocr-2.7.0 and PaddlePaddle 2.3.2
I was using python 3.8.18
System Information :Mac M2 MacOS Ventura version 13.5

I had to force and stop the process

code sample

from paddleocr import PaddleOCR
ocr = PaddleOCR(use_angle_cls=True, lang='en') # need to run only once to download and load model into memory
img_path = '/Users/pranaysaha/Developer/OCR/sample.jpeg'
result = ocr.ocr(img_path, cls=True)

opencv-python==4.6.0.66
protobuf==4.25.1
paddleocr==2.7.0.3
paddlepaddle==2.5.1
pymupdf==1.20.0

I tried the same code as @pranay-009 and the execution freezes after this:
