Ivo Andonov is a fictional character and one of the main protagonists of the BNT crime series Undercover (Bulgarian: Pod Prikritie). Andonov is portrayed by Zahari Baharov as an unmerciful and ruthless gangster, who initially served as the loyal right-hand man of a powerful ex-cop, wealthy businessman and Bulgarian mafia boss, Peter Tudzharov (Dzharo). However, Ivo was betrayed by him later.
Andonov eventually takes the seat of his boss as the new ruling crime lord of the Bulgarian mafia after Tudzharov's incarceration and death. Bazarov's performance received critical acclaim, and Andonov's character development was noted as one of the series' highlights as the antithesis to Martin Hristov's character, one of the other main protagonists.
