Hi Deepika. This already exists out of the box as part of the CMDB Health Check feature. Before you head down the road of creating a complex custom report, it could save you time and effort to use the existing feature.
Making it mandatory for CMDB Health Check is a little different than updating the Dictionary. Here is a link to info on configuring mandatory fields in the CMDB:

You will have to use performance analytics for this requirement.
you will have to configure formula indicators and then configure breakdowns to show count of null vs not nulll for field in bar.
Please check below to get you started

I have the same requirement, exactly same for CMDB. To show for recommended fields the count of records which are missing the data.
Unable to find the solution.
