  This paper investigates the existence and properties of anisotropic strange
quark stars in the context of massive Brans-Dicke theory. The field equations
are constructed in Jordan frame by assuming a suitable potential function with
MIT bag model. We employ the embedding class-one approach as well as junction
conditions to determine the unknown metric functions. Radius of the strange
star candidate, LMC X-4, is predicted through its observed mass for different
values of the bag constant. We analyze the effects of coupling parameter as
well as mass of scalar field on state determinants and execute multiple checks
on the stability and viability of the spherical system. It is concluded that
the resulting stellar structure is physically viable and stable as it satisfies
the energy conditions as well as essential stability criteria.
