Legal Question in Family Law in India

hi I'm. 24 years old and am in love with my 1st cousin (the daughter of my mom's younger sister) we both love each other since 4 years

We heard that we cannot marry each other as she is cousin and we want to live together

Are these kinds of marriages legal ?someone suggested me that there is something called a ''special marriage act'' in which such marriages turn legal. Is it true?

We both are hindu having different surname and different gotra

Please suggest us how we both can live together or marry each other legally
