Since you both have been living separately for the past 6 months and you wish to file for a contested divorce under Hindu law, you can proceed under Section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Common grounds include cruelty, desertion (if over 2 years), mental disorder, or irretrievable breakdown. You will need to file a petition before the Family Court having jurisdiction over your place of residence or where the marriage took place. Evidence and witness statements will be crucial.

If the behaviour of your partner is intolerable towards you can anytime send a complaint regarding your grievances in writing to the police station according to your jurisdiction. And if you wish to go legal and if there's no scope of living together then rather stretching the relationship you should file for contested divorce under the ground of cruelty. I would suggest you to go with mutual divorce because it's cost effective and ends up in a maximum of six months.
