Žarís' mother Nari passed away suddenly in April of 2012. At the time of her passing, Nari was the leader of the DNP, then in opposition, and had been in the Diet for more than 20 years. A major force in Tavari politics at the time, Nari Nevran Alandar's death made national news and, as the leader of the opposition, was afforded a state funeral. A by-election was held for the seat in June of 2012. Žarís was nominated by the DNP to stand as the party's candidate in the by-election to replace her late mother.
However, Žarís proved to be an able political strategist and has remained in the seat since her election. In 2014, she was made Shadow Minister of Rodokan Affairs, and a year later was named Shadow Minister of International Trade and Development, the department her mother had served in as Minister between 1994 and 1999. As the topic has long been a personal interest of hers, she kept the portfolio even after becoming Deputy Prime Minister, being the first to serve in those two roles at the same time. She was appointed Deputy Prime Minister by Šonai Tuvria after the 2017 election in recognition for her "shrewd sense of strategy and her skill in communication."
