'''Todor Petrov Kolev''' ({{langx|bg|Тодор Колев}}; 26 August 1939 &ndash; 15 February 2013) was a leading Bulgarian film and stage actor, singer, comedian and TV presenter.


Born in [[Shumen]], his first major film was Tsar i General (Tsar and General) in 1966. He has appeared in more than 30 films. He is best known to the Bulgarian audience by his roles in comedies such as ''[[Gospodin za edin den]]'' (''King for a day''), Dvoynikat (The Double), ''[[Prebroyavane na Divite Zaytsi]]'' (''The Hare Census''), ''Tsarska Piesa'' (''Royal Play''), ''Posledniyat Ergen'' (''The Last Bachelor''), ''[[Opasen Char]]'' (''Dangerous Charm''). During the Communist rule, he was temporarily exiled from [[Sofia]] to [[Sliven]] for a joke he made in public that there were three Toshkos who made Bulgarians laugh ("Toshko" is the diminutive form of the name Todor in Bulgarian): the Communist leader [[Todor Zhivkov]], the clown [[Toshko Kozarev]] and himself.
