A Ukrainian comedian who starred as a fictional president in a TV show has sensationally won the first round of voting in the eastern European country's real Presidential election.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy, an outsider with no government experience, has emerged as the unlikely front-runner to be the next Premier of the embattled nation which has been gripped in political turmoil for the past few years.
Exit polls suggest that the the 41-year-old former funny-man will storm through to the final round of voting where he will be pitted against the incumbent President Petro Poroshenko.

He secured a reported 30.4 per cent of the vote, a sizeable lead over second-place Mr Poroshenko who received 17.8 per cent of ballots cast.
Mr Zelenskiy was previously known for his TV show in which he stars as an ordinary citizen who becomes president after rallying against corruption.
Both the ex-comedian and the current President adopted pro-European Union stances during the campaign, with Russian occupied territories boycotting today's poll.
The pair will go head-to-head in the final round of voting on April 21 if the exit poll is accurate and nobody wins over 50 per cent of total votes.
Mr Poroshenko was elected in a snap election back in 2014 when disgraced leader, Viktor Yanukovych, was ousted following an bloody uprising in the capital, Kiev.
