In 1940, Soerip made her feature film debut in Zoebaida, directed by Njoo Cheong Seng for Oriental Film.{{sfn|JCG, Soerip, Miss}} This was followed in 1941 by Panggilan Darah, in which Soerip was cast with Dhalia as orphaned sisters who try to make a living in the colonial capital of Batavia (now Jakarta).{{sfn|Filmindonesia.or.id, Panggilan Darah}} When the company folded, unable to recoup its expenses,{{sfn|Biran|2009|p=229}} Soerip migrated to Majestic Film.
