Legal Question in Family Law in India

Hello, I'm a 27 year old woman in love with my first cousin (father's brother's son). We have different paternal grandmothers. My father is my grandfather's son from first wife and my uncle is the son of my grandfather's second wife. Hence our fathers are step brothers.

Kindly advise if we can get married under the Special Marriage Act.

If not, please advise and help us with other options that will enable us to marry and live together.

Also, will the marriage be valid if we get it registered in another country where cousin marriages are legal?
