This document assesses about an inventive idea of utilizing fruit waste to produce bioplastic, an environmental-friendly approach to reduce plastic pollution. In this study, bioplastic sheets were made using varying concentrations of gelatin and starch and also tried to incorporate oil and paper pulp to check various changing parameters. Bioplastic sheets produced were subjected to various physio-chemical analysis such as biodegradation, water solubility and water absorption, solubility in different solvents. The use of oil lead to better water retention characteristic. Experimental results lead us to the path where we can rely on bio-based plastics on behalf of petroleum-based
