No one was injured in the incident.
"We have registered the FIR against two unidentified men under section 307 (attempt to murder) and 34 (common intention) of the IPC and sections of Arms Act," said Deputy Commissioner of Police, Zone 10, Ankit Goel.
The DCP said police are investigating which weapon was used in the crime.
