Bigg Boss 18 was changed from 7.5 lakh plastic bottles to steel bottles.

Jagruk Youth News Desk, New Delhi, In a media statement, the head of production for Bigg Boss 18, Sarvesh Singh said, ''Sustainability isn’t just a trend for us; it’s a responsibility. Given the scale of our production and the size of the crew on the Bigg Boss set, replacing 7.5 lakh single-use plastic bottles was a massive undertaking.
