It seems that she has the best 'chemistry' with actors that aren't h e r choices but the director's/filmmaker's one.
I assume that here, she pleaded/asked Karan explicitely for Ranveer just because of what Bekind wrote in the first post:

These are things, Alia doesn't forget...and with her constant (unnecessary) rival feeling towards Deepika and also Ranveer being available... she may have wanted to 'prove' something (like she wanted/wants with Ranbir).
In Brahmastra, she also explicitely asked Karan to be paired with Ranbir although Ayan (and Ranbir, too???) wasn't eager (to me, it's the reason why Ayan - unconsciously maybe - sabotaged a romance that neither he nor Ranbir felt but Alia wanted to make 'convincing' ...that's why I thought at that time that her character would turn out to be actually a g a i n s t Shiva's mission).
