Anand,
It could be needle depth. Where it sews on the other colors and not this
one I wouldn't say its the presser foot height. Maybe its the spool of
thread. I would tie the cone of thread on a different needle number and see
if you still have breaks. If you do I would narrow it to the thread or that
part of the design.
