Controversies | • In 2019, Obed was arrested by Mohali police for allegedly exploiting around 40 girls. Apparently, he used to ask the girls for their semi-nude pictures in exchange for modelling assignments and work under the name of Gunbir Singh, who is the owner of one of the most prominent labels in the Punjabi music industry, White Hill Studio and White Hill music banner. The complaint was lodged by Gunbir against Obed under various sections of IPC including Section 419, 420 and Section 66C 66D of IT Act. In the complaint, he said, "I am writing this to bring to your notice that my name is being misused by using different phone numbers. It has come to my knowledge that my identity is being used to call up girls from different phone numbers and address to exploit them by using my name. I am a leading film producer of the Punjabi film industry and the owner of the White Hill Studio and White Hill music banner," He further added, "My name is being misused to mislead some girls and I am aware of the extent of damage that has already been done to my name and how far this will go if strict action is not taken against the accused." However, none of the models officially filed any complaint against Obed.
