How to save selected object using mat-chip and autocomplete in angular material 2

I am using Angular 6 with Angular Material. I am trying to save a selected object or list of selected object from mat-chip and autocomplete. I am able to send string value to fruits[] array but can not able to send selected object in to fruits[] array. Please help me to find a solution. Thanks.
