This week sees the launch of '#WanitaBesi', a new campaign by Grey Malaysia for P&G haircare brand Pantene. Starring the award winning Malaysian singer and songwriter Yuna, the campaign is a landmark for the world-leading haircare brand, marking the first time that Pantene Malayisa has used a celebrity ambassador who wears a hijab.

Marking the latest chapter in their long-running ‘Strong is Beautiful’ platform, the campaign launched this weekend with a premiere in cinemas across Malaysia of '#WanitaBesi', a new short film starring, Yuna alongside two high profile Malaysian women; health and fitness star Linora Low and former Malaysian national diver Adeline Chin.

Shot by Think Tank, the title of the film, ‘WanitaBesi’ is a Bahasa Malaysia phrase that translates as ‘Iron Lady’ – a term that is traditionally used as an insult aimed women perceived to be lacking in feminity. Pantene's campaign aims to add new meaning to the phrase, drawing inspiration from the cast's real-life stories, showing how they each triumphed over adversity.
