Made her grand debut in "sinetron" (Indonesian terms for television series, mini series and made-for-television movies) in 1997 with "Bukan Perempuan Biasa" ("Not An Ordinary Woman"). Despite earning critical acclaims and supportive public response for her performance in that sinetron, it took almost 4 years for her to return to television again in 2001, this time she blended into a strong ensemble cast of women in a mini-series called "Tiga Orang Perempuan" ("Three Women").

She won in 1974 (for "Cinta Pertama"), 1977 (for "Sesuatu Yang Indah"), 1979 (for "Pengemis dan Tukang Becak"), 1983 (for "Di Balik Kelambu"), 1985 (for "Kerikil-Kerikil Tajam") and last but not least was in 1988 for her heart-wrenching potrayal as "Tjoet Nja Dhien".
