In 2002, Kamal played a high school student alongside Dian Sastrowardoyo in Ada Apa dengan Cinta? (What's Up with Love?). This led to her becoming "one of the most sought-after young actresses" in the country.{{sfn|The Jakarta Post 2005, Titi Kamal misses}} The following year she had minor role in Eiffel I'm in Love as the girlfriend of the male lead, played by Samuel Rizal; Kamal's character ultimately plays second fiddle to the female lead, played by Shandy Aulia. In the scene in which Kamal's character Intan arrives in Paris, slow motion reminiscent of Halle Berry's introduction in Die Another Day is used;{{sfn|Ryanto 2003, What's up with}} Kamal was introduced in a similar manner in several subsequent films.{{sfn|Yazid 2008, Titi Kamal: Looking}}
