You are beating sets+FDs only which is the only thing I could think they would get it in here without the nuts. So I often fold here to medium/solid players and call the fish/whales
I play the hand similar except I raise more pre probably pot over 2 limpers, and bet less on the turn. Something like 200 rather than 250.
Your clubs might not be live. I would absolutely play the hand like you did so far. It's $600 to win $1500 ish. 2.5:1 you need 28.5% equity to call. I suppose he could have QQQ QQTx or QQ w/ clubs) but there's no way he plays JJJ, 999 or 444 like this. If he does have KT it stands to reason he has clubs with it, or he had a wrap but was worried about the presence of the flush draw. Something like KKTx is also possible I suppose. I think the overwhelming likelyhood of KT w/ clubs might push this to a fold but it's bound to be close either way.
Whatever you do on the turn, just don't bet/fold. Even c/fold is better. Normally either c/r or bet/call, depending on the villain. Can c/c c/c vs super-monkeys and even c/c c/f vs mega-nits. Just don't bet/fold.
Think it's better to check raise flop, never getting it in horrible, avoids uncomfortable turn spots like this and although we're not loving it we don't hate life if it gets checked behind.

As played bet/call seems fine.
Getting in a c/r on the flop is obviously insanely good for us, especially if one or both of the limpers call. Problem is we have no reason to think loud indian guy is gonna bet. Hand can quickly go from monster to just decent on turns when it checks through vs undefined hands. I think its a clear cb.
