About Shekhar
If you find math to be challenging, then physics is mostly math. If you find math to be easy (as do most physics majors) then the challenge is understanding the physics; math is just a tool.
Here’s a similar question for the study of literature: is it mostly keyboarding? After all, that’s what you need to use to write your 20-page term papers. The answer of course is no. Keyboarding is just a tool, as is math for physics.
If you find math to be hard, then it may not be possible for you to become a professional physicist. There are exceptions; Michael Faraday, one of the greatest physicists of all time, never felt really comfortable with math. And if you find math difficult, that does not mean you can’t be a great physics teacher at the high school level, since such physics requires little more than algebra (or, for the AP courses, some calculus).

Physicists love mathematics, but they do not worship it. Richard Feynman once said, "If all of mathematics suddenly ceased to exist, physics would be set back by about a week." I am not sure that's in any sense true, but I think it does roughly represent the attitude that many physicists have toward math. It's a tool.
