"He couldn't believe it happened. I think this movie meant a lot to him," Ansari, 42, spilled to an outlet.

After the woman filed the complaint, an investigation took place, which resulted in Murray, 74, paying the assistant $100K and the flick being shut down."Everybody's texting me, 'Oh, Aziz, I'm so sorry.' And I said, 'Oh God, I can't live in this woe-is-me moment," Ansari said of trying to move on.

Despite the ordeal, the Masters of None creator still hopes they can resume filming one day - especially since the Groundhog Day lead insisted it was all a misunderstanding."It wasn't like I touched her. I gave her a kiss through a mask. And she wasn't a stranger," he told The New York Times, adding he did the same thing to another assistant as a joke."We were all stranded in this one room listening to this crazy scene. I dunno what prompted me to do it," he admitted.

"I thought it was funny, and every time it happened, it was funny.""It was a great disappointment, because I thought I knew someone, and I did not," he noted of the assistant. "I certainly thought it was light. I thought it was funny. To me it's still funny, the idea that you could give someone a kiss with a mask on. It's still stupid. It's all it was."Murray felt "barbecued" by the drama even though he "tried to make peace" with his accuser.
